The Frankfort Falcons fell 69-59 to the Southern Rams on Wednesday. The Falcons were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Rams apparently hadn't forgotten their defeat the last time these teams played back in December of 2023.
Southern's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Jared Haskiell led the charge by going 5-for-9 on his way to 22 points. Haskiell's evening made it 17 games in a row in which he has scored at least 15 points. The team also got some help courtesy of Brayden Upole, who went 7-for-12 en route to 23 points.
