FORT WAYNE, IN (March 3, 2015) - The Mad Ants, sponsored by Lutheran Health Network, fell at home, Tuesday, March 3rd to the Austin Spurs 108-99 at the Allen Co. War Memorial Coliseum.

The Mad Ants would go into the locker room trailing 61-54. Andre Emmett led with 16 early points and Trey McKinney-Jones put in 9 of his own.
The Mad Ants came out of the lock room after half, challenging the Spurs' lead and eventually cutting it down to 1 late in the third quarter.
