Men’s Basketball Handed 76-62 Loss at Chestnut Hill



Goldey-Beacom faced a big test in its hopes of making the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference Tournament, but left Philadelphia with a 76-62 setback at Chestnut Hill.
 
The first meeting between the teams this season saw Chestnut Hill shoot 26 percent from the floor in the first half.  The home side did much better in the opening stanza of game two, hitting 58 percent (18-of-31) for a 41-32 lead thanks to nine points from Luke Dickson and eight apiece from Noel Hightower and Edward McWade.
 
Chestnut Hill, which never trailed, kept it going in the second half with a 12-3 run spanning just over four minutes for a 63-46 cushion with 8:11 remaining.  McWade, who went on a torrid shooting spree through most of the contest, scored eight points in that span and Antonio Toplyn Jr. added four.
 
McWade scored 19 points on 7-of-12 shooting and was 5-of-8 from three-point range.  Dickson netted 14 points, Hightower had 12 and 10 rebounds with Toplyn Jr. getting 12 and seven for the Griffins, who shot 51 percent (29-of-57) from the field and canned 3-pointers.
 
Shakeem Wilson (Brooklyn, NY) scored all 16 of his points in the second half, fellow junior Elijah Tillman (Garnerville, NY) had 15 and 11 rebounds for his sixth double-double of the season and junior Sameen Swint (Sicklerville, NJ) added 11 points for GBC, which shot 35 percent (22-of-63) from the floor.
 
The Lightning (7-13, 5-6 CACC) and the Griffins (8-11, 5-6) now are tied for the fourth and final conference-tournament spot in the South Division.  GBC was attempting to complete its first season sweep of Chestnut Hill since the 2007-08 season.
 
Goldey-Beacom opens a four-game homestand Saturday vs. Nyack.  The women's game is at 1:00 pm and the men's contest starts at 3:00 pm.
