LYCOMING MEN’S BASKETBALL REMAINS UNDEFEATED

GLENSIDE, Pa. – The Lycoming College men’s basketball team traveled to Arcadia University, Monday evening, for a non-conference game. The Warriors pulled away in the second half for a 67-50 victory to keep their record perfect at 9-0 overall. The Knights fell to 1-8 on the season.

In the second half, the Warriors picked up the defensive intensity while remaining nearly perfect from the charity stripe, connecting on 15-of-16 attempts. The end result was a 17-point victory on the road.

Kevin Morris (Fr./Camp Hill, Pa.; Trinity) led Lycoming in scoring with 18 points, including 15-of-15 from the free-throw line. He also grabbed six rebounds. Jonathan Pribble (Jr./Woolrich, Pa.; Central Mountain) added 11 points and six rebounds, while Brad Musser (Jr./Mifflinburg, Pa.; Mifflinburg) chipped in 10 markers and four assists.
