WARRIOR MEN’S BASKETBALL FALLS TO KING’S

WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – The Lycoming College men’s basketball team hosted King’s College, Wednesday evening, for a Freedom Conference tilt.

In the first half, the Warriors shot just 33% from the field, including just 1-of-12 from three-point range. The result was a 24-35 deficit at halftime. Lycoming opened the second half with five consecutive points to close within six, but the outside shooting did not improve, allowing the Monarchs to hang on for the victory.

Curtis Mays (Jr./Philadelphia, Pa.; University City) was the Warriors’ top scorer with 16 points off the bench. He also grabbed seven rebounds and tallied four steals. Jonathan Pribble (Jr./Woolrich, Pa.; Central Mountain) added 15 points and a team-high eight rebounds. Brad Musser (Jr./Mifflinburg, Pa.; Mifflinburg) added 12 points and five assists.
