Sterling had to hit the road for their first game and it wasn't the result they were hoping for. They had to suffer through a 68-19 loss at the hands of the Sacred Heart Irish. The Jets lost against the Irish in their previous head to head back in February, too, but the margin this time around was even wider than the 58-46 score last time.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Sacred Heart to victory, but perhaps none more so than Cole Taft, who shot 71% from the field on his way to 15 points and four steals. Bo Fletcher was another key player, going 6-for-12 to rack up 14 points and four steals.
Coincidentally, Sterling and Sacred Heart will both be playing Exeter-Milligan/Friend the next time they take the court. The Jets will host the Bobcats at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, while the Irish will host them at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.
