In their return from the holiday break, LaGuardia lost the Passaic 86-83. 

The Red Hawks fell behind early in this contest. Passaic was able to jump out to an early double digit lead behind their defensive play. Arthur Dukes helped keep the Red Hawks afloat in the first half and the team went into the half down 42-35. 

LaGuardia came out of the half guns blazing, refusing to go down without a fight. Arthur Dukes did everything he could to bring LaGuardia back, including having his second 50 point game of the season. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough to overcome the balanced offensive attack from Passaic. 

The Red Hawks look to get back to winning ways on Tuesday against Hostos.
