Men’s Basketball Ends Season with 85-65 Rout at Georgian Court



Goldey-Beacom went on cruise control and finished the season with an 85-65 Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference victory over Georgian Court in Lakewood, NJ.
 
The first half was a one-sided affair as Goldey-Beacom (10-18, 8-11 CACC) rolled to a 45-22 lead by shooting a robust 51 percent (19-of-37) from the floor and limited Georgian Court to only 28 percent (7-of-28).  Sameen Swint (Sicklerville, NJ) scored nine points on 4-of-5 shooting, fellow junior Parris Ridgeway-Higgs (New Castle, DE) had nine on 4-of-6 shooting and freshman Corey Taite (Sayreville, NJ) also poured in nine for GBC, which saw its bench gain a 19-5 scoring edge.
 
That margin increased in the second half when the Lightning scored 12 straight points for a 69-31 margin with 13:12 left.  Taite, Swint, junior Shakeem Wilson (Brooklyn, NY) and sophomore Daniel Cooper (Miami, FL) all scored three points in that time.
 
Swint finished with 18 points on 7-of-12 shooting to go with four 3-pointers, Taite netted 15 points with three 3-pointers, Cooper scored 14 points off the bench and junior Elijah Tillman (Garnerville, NY) poured in 12 points on 6-of-8 shooting.  All of this helped the Lightning shoot 46 percent (32-of-69) from the floor, nail a season-best 13 three-pointers and improve to 6-0 all-time vs. the Lions.
 
Jakov Pilic scored 19 points, Nikola Vujovic had 13 and 10 rebounds with Juwuan Carter and Michael Pierre adding 11 points apiece for Georgian Court (5-21, 4-15), which shot 42 percent (22-of-53) from the field but committed 18 turnovers.
 
Tillman becomes the eighth player in program history to haul in at least 200 rebounds, moving up to seventh with 201.  His 37 blocked shots already are the eighth-best total in team annals.  Wilson's 117 made free throws are third best for one season in team annals and Taite's 103 are eighth.  Taite's 58 steals this season put him eighth for one season in program history.
