Paul Smith, NY: The Vermont Tech Men's Basketball team traveled to take on the Bobcats of Paul Smith College. A balanced scoring attack from the Knights propelled them to a 96-85 win on the road.
After leading by only 2 at half, the Knights opened up on a 11-0 run to take a 60-47 lead. The two teams traded blows back and forth during the second half. Bobcats were able to cut the lead to 4 with 5 minutes to go, but 2 layups by Jalyon Calvin and Terrel Steele gave the Knights a comfortable lead to finish the game.
Elijah Pratt of Paul Smith led all scorers with 28 points, followed by Anthony Henson with 21. All 5 starters for Vermont Tech finished in double figures. Jaylon Calvin finished with a monster double double with 20 points and 15 rebounds.
Coach Hughes Statement
I thought we responded really well after a tough loss on Thursday. It's hard to win on the road in this league and Paul Smith is a team who can certainly beat anyone with their firepower. I am pleased with how we competed and stuck together. Now we have to get ready for another conference game that we need to win.
The Knights host Albany Pharmacy tomorrow at home.
