The Coyotes held a fourth quarter lead, but went 1-of-13 shooting in the quarter, and turned the ball over eight times to allow the Stallions to come back for the victory Tuesday evening.

Madera committed 35 turnovers in the loss. They also shot 7-of-40 (18 percent) from the field and were just one-of-11 from 3-point range. They were also just 3-of-24 (13 percent) shooting in the second half.
