In the closing three minutes, the Hawks (0-2) missed five shots and turned the ball over three times. Meanwhile, the Yellowjackets (1-1) went 2 for 3 from the field and 5 of 8 from thee free-throw line.
Robbins led the Hawks with 16 points, while Ethyn Brown had 12 points, five rebounds and five assists. Mason Wujek added 11 points and John Kelly III snared 11 rebounds.
