Manchester, NH - Four come up big but not enough against Southern New Hampshire

The Concordia College Clippers kicked off the 2010 portion of their season facing off against the Penmen of Southern New Hampshire University.  The Clippers starting off slow fell behind quickly as the Penmen headed off to a 10-1 lead.  The Clippers attempted to strike back but the Penmen held strong.  With the Penmen in the lead the Clippers relaxed and found a way to strike back.  The Clippers inched their way back into the game and were able to head to the locker room trailing by just one; 35-34.
