REC CENTER — In the second half, the Peregrines offense clicked at just under 40 percent from the field. But they couldn’t overcome a 26 percent shooting performance in the first 20 minutes leading to a 74-61 Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic Conference loss to Judson University on Saturday in the first of two homecoming games.

The Peregrines (6-21, 2-5 CCAC) struggled from the field to open the game and failed to hit the double-digit mark until eight-plus minutes into the first half, which led to a 15-point deficit at the break.
