ROME, Ga. — The Berry College men's basketball team lost their third game of the season on Tuesday night, falling to the Guilford College Quakers by a score of 68-58. 

Caleb Haynes led the Vikings with a double-double on 14 points and 12 rebounds. Cory Johnson was the only other Viking to score double-figures, posting 11. A balanced scoring attack for Guilford saw four players reach double figures.
