Men’s Basketball Falls at Dominican in CACC Tournament



Goldey-Beacom made a valiant comeback, only to come up empty in a 71-62 loss to Dominican (NY) in the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference Tournament quarterfinals in Orangeburg, NY.
 
The Lightning were in a 47-33 hole with 13:38 remaining before going on a 16-7 run to close to 54-49 with 8:09 to go.  Junior Dante Thompson (Coram, NY) scored 10 points in that span and senior Riyan Williams (Dunkirk, MD) ended it with a 3-pointer.
 
The lead was 58-51 with 7:21 remaining before the Lightning then embarked on an 8-4 run to make it a 60-59 deficit with 4:47 to go.  Thompson and Williams scored four points apiece in that span.
 
Gerrel Irvin hit consecutive layups for the Chargers to make it 64-59 with 3:07 to play and Jonathan Garcia added a free throw with 2:39 left for a five-point contest.
 
Senior Shakeem Wilson (Brooklyn, NY) made a free throw with 2:17 left that brought GBC within 65-60, but Garcia hit twice more from the stripe with 55 seconds to go for a seven-point game.
 
Thompson closed with 20 points and nine rebounds with senior Khalil Keel (Philadelphia, PA) netting 10 points for the Lightning, who shot 36 percent (22-of-61) from the field.
 
Irvin scored 16 points, Travis Cook netted 15, Garcia poured in 11 that included going 7-for-8 from the line and Daraja Rodwell added 10 for the Chargers (18-11), who shot 53 percent (26-of-49) from the floor.
 
Goldey-Beacom (20-7) ends an outstanding season in which it tied the school record for most wins and set team marks with a 12-game winning streak, a seven-game road winning streak and 11 road victories.  It also was listed ninth in the first NCAA East Region Rankings.
