Box Score

CLINTON, N.Y. - SUNY Geneseo junior forward Joseph Harclerode and sophomore guard Michael Gannon each scored 14 points but a second-half surge by the host Continentals sunk the Knights, 91-64, at Hamilton on Monday afternoon.

HOW IT HAPPENED

  • Geneseo opened up a 15-8 lead over the first five minutes as Gannon, Harclerode and junior forward Alex Merhige each netted buckets to create a 6-0 run for the Knights. 
  • The Continentals regained the lead with an 11-0 run and went ahead by 10 points, 36-26, with 3:59 to play in the first half.
