Men’s Basketball
Gwynedd Mercy 57, Neumann 56
GWYNEDD VALLEY, Pa. ? The Neumann University men’s basketball fell just short, 57-56, at Gwynedd Mercy University on Wednesday evening in Colonial States Athletic Conference (CSAC) action.
DeShawn Lowman (fr. Wilmington, Del. / Concord) led the Knights with 16 points. Mark Blount (sr. Philadelphia, Pa. / William Penn) notched a double-double with 14 points and 14 rebounds. Reggie Coleman (sr. Trenton, N.J. / Trenton Catholic) added 14 points.
The Griffins came out and scored the games’ first six points. The Knights answered with six straight points so the game was tied with 14:15 left in the first half. Gwynedd Mercy then built up a lead of seven, 17-10, midway through the first half. A three-pointer by Coleman cut the lead to within one, 18-17.
A jumper by Blount tied the game at 25 with 4:27 remaining on the clock. Neither team could find the basket for two minutes. The teams traded back-to-back baskets from downtown with two minutes left in the first half. Blount stole the ball with six seconds left and completed a layup to give the Knights a 30-28 lead into the half.
The second half was much like the first. The Griffins held the largest lead, 48-42, midway through the half. Kevin Green (so. Chester, Pa. / Chester) hit a three-pointer with 4:34 left on the clock to put the Knights up by two, 54-52. Again, the teams went through a few minutes where no one could make a basket. Blount gave Neumann a three point lead, 56-63, with 2:40 left in regulation.
The Knights could not make another basket and the Griffins connected on two layups, to take a one point lead, 57-56. Rich Whitten (sr. Yonkers, N.Y. / Archbishop Stepinac) stole the ball with nine seconds remaining and attempted a three-pointer with two seconds, but could not connect.
Neumann is now 3-3 overall and 1-2 in CSAC action. The Knights will host Immaculata on Saturday as part of a conference doubleheader with the women. The women tip-off at 1 PM followed by the men at 3 PM.
