Columbia Cougars’ late surge falls just short

A wild second-half comeback nearly had Columbia College men’s basketball pulling off the upset at Missouri Valley, but the Cougars couldn’t quite close the gap, falling 66-70. Despite a tough shooting night, the team’s grit showed as they erased a 16-point deficit, with Justin Boyer’s hot hand off the bench and Johnny Anderson’s double-double leading the charge. Columbia dominated the boards and kept turnovers low, but Missouri Valley’s sharp shooting from deep made the difference. How do you feel about the Cougars’ resilience, and what do you think they need to get over the hump next time? #Sports #ColumbiaCougars #CollegeBasketball
