Marcellus Livingston’s Heroics Not Enough For Men’s Basketball in 98-89 Loss at Bloomfield



Sophomore Marcellus Livingston (Linden, NJ) played arguably his finest game for Goldey-Beacom by pouring in a career-high 33 points, but it was not enough for his squad in a 98-89 Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference loss at Bloomfield in Bloomfield, NJ.
 
Livingston in the first half went off for 18 points on 7-of-12 shooting, but Goldey-Beacom found itself in a 44-34 hole despite shooting 41 percent (14-of-34) from the floor.  Kaivone Green poured in 18 points on 7-of-8 shooting for the Bears.
 
GBC got itself back in the game by scoring 11 consecutive points over two minutes, closing to 84-75 with 6:15 remaining.  Livingston netted five in that time, ending it on a layup.
 
But Bloomfield then went on a 10-5 run that all but ended things, opening a 94-80 cushion with 3:13 to go.  Green netted five points in that time and Dontay Julius ended it with a 3-pointer.
 
Livingston shot 12-of-22 from the floor to best his career high of 30 points from December 16, 2017 against Adelphi.  He also canned five 3-pointers and hauled in eight rebounds over a team-best 37 minutes.
 
Livingston is averaging 18.4 points over his last five games and has scored in double figures 13 times this season.
 
Sophomore Tevin Service (Union, NJ) poured in 19 points and senior Mahir Johnson (Chester, PA) added 17 for the Lightning (8-9, 6-2 CACC), who shot 53 percent (20-of-38) from the floor in the second half and 47 percent (34-of-72) overall.
 
Green netted 29 points on 12-of-17 shooting with four 3-pointers and Rich Chapman added 17 points for the Bears (9-8, 7-1), who shot a blistering 69 percent (22-of-32) from the field in the second half and 58 percent (39-of-67) overall.
 
Goldey-Beacom next Tuesday also is on the road, this time against University of the Sciences.  Tipoff in Philadelphia is 7:30 pm, following the 5:30 pm contest between the same schools.
