Canton's late rally came up short as they fell to Sullivan County, 53-46, during non-league boys' basketball action.
After a seesaw first quarter the Griffins ended the second up 25-21. Canton tied the contest up at 27-27 early in the third but after Sullivan retook the lead they never relinquished it.
The Griffins got up by as much as 13 points midway through the fourth, but a 7-0 Canton rally cut it to a 6-point game. However, the Warriors came away empty-handed on three straight possessions as they ran out of time.
Ben Fitch had 15 points to lead Canton as Talin Williams scored 12. Ryder Route added six, Quincy Wesneski notched five, Simon Wile added four, with Andrew Smith, and Ryland Wesneski getting two points apiece.
