California freshmen lose consolation to Moberly

California's freshman boys basketball team participated in the Jefferson Junior 64th Invitational last week at Columbia, where the Pintos, seeded eighth, ultimately lost the consolation game to #6 seeded Moberly 54-47 Thursday night.

"We got off to a slow start again, something that has plagued us the entire season, off and on," California Coach Dustin Jeffries said. "This was a hard-fought game; we just couldn't overcome the deficit."
