Andy Madesko, Che Hanks and Jonathan Box helped keep the offense flowing.
In the second half, Lasell struggled to maintain that efficiency, shooting 33.3 percent from the floor and just 2-for-16 from beyond the arc.The Lasers cut into the deficit late and received a key jumper from Andy Madesko with 1:36 remaining, but the comeback fell short.
