On the road and missing two starters, the Macks (11-7, 8-4 Western Cloverbelt Conference) struggled to find their offensive rhythm as the Rails (5-12, 4-7 WCC) built a 14-point halftime advantage.
After the break, McDonell's defensive pressure brought them as close as six, but Altoona always had an answer when the Macks pulled within single digits, and held them at arm's length until the final horn.
