Word's Double-Double Not Enough, Knights beat Patriots

Box Score ENOLA, PA- Sean Word's 19 points and 17 rebounds were not enough, as the Patriots fell to the Knights of Central Penn College 93-73 Thursday night. The Patriots traveled to the USCAA #2 ranked Knights coming off of a win at Pine Manor College last Saturday. They would shoot only 32.5% from the field, and 10% from behind the arc in the 20 point loss.

DeAndre Gadsden opened up the scoring 30 seconds into the first as he hit a jumper for the first points of the game. From there, the Patriots shooting woes would start, and the Knights would begin to build their lead. With 4:51 left, the Knights took their largest lead of the half, 16. The Patriots would pull it back to 10, and go in at the half down 47-37.

In the 2nd, just 2 minutes in, Thorne McIntosh's field goal would bring the Patriots within 8. That was the closest they would get to the Knights. 5 different Knights would score in double-digits, led by Tyree Tucker's 21, as the Knights would go on for the 20 point victory.

With the win, the Knights improve to 16-8 on the season.

With the loss, the Patriots drop to 4-15.

The Patriots return to action Saturday, February 6th, as they host USCAA #1 ranked Berkeley College. Tip-off is set for 3:00PM in the Pit.
