Larry Robinson led Bossier (5-9) with 17 points, and Kentrell Hardy chipped in with 11.
The last three minutes of the game were played under a cloud after Bossier’s Chris Davenport collided with a teammate and went down hard on the floor. The teammate got up but Davenport stayed on the court face down.
Holding his hands to his head, Davenport was eventually helped off the court and to a seat on the bench where he kept his eyes closed while being attended to. Almost immediately after the game ended, he was transported by ambulance to a local hospital for further evaluation.
