Men's Basketball Dealt 75-67 Loss by Daemen; Marsh Named to All-Tournament Team



Goldey-Beacom rounded out the East Region Challenge falling to hosts Daemen 75-67 in Amherst, NY.
 
Both teams traded buckets in the first half, with the biggest lead at eight points in favor of the Lightning, 28-20, with 1:42 remaining. Two buckets from Daemen closed the gap to three by the halftime buzzer.
 
After struggling to find the bottom of the basket in the first half, both teams settled in the second to provide exciting action.
 
With 14:32 remaining, sophomore Caleb Bates (Detroit, MI) sparked a 7-0 run for the Lightning as they took a 43-40 lead. But it was quickly cut short when Daemen went on a 13-4 run of their own to take back a 53-47 lead with 8:06 left.
 
The Lightning clawed their way back to tie up the score at 54-54 before Andrew Mason score a three-pointer and Dylan Fasoyiro netted six points to give Daemen a 63-54 lead.
 
Sophomore Zayon Marsh (Maplewood, NJ) knocked down a free throw to give the Lightning a final boost with 2:07 left, followed by a three-pointer canned by Bates and another by senior Nazim Derry (Atlantic City, NJ) with 55 seconds to go to bring the Lightning to trail 68-62.
 
As the Lightning were forced into a foul situation in the final minute, Daemen closed the game 7-of-8 from the charity stripe to secure the 75-67 win.
 
Marsh finished with a double-double of 15 points and 11 rebounds, awarding him All-Tournament Team honors. Derry closed with 15 points, Bates notched 14, and senior Damani Thomas (Kingston, NY) added 11 for GBC (1-1).
 
Fasoyiro, named tournament most valuable player, had 21 points on 57 percent shooting. Mason and Glover, also named to the all-tournament team, had 18 and 10 respectively, with Glover dishing seven assists for Daemen (3-2).
 
Goldey-Beacom host Lock Haven on Tuesday in their home opener at 6:00 pm at the Joseph West Jones Center in Wilmington, DE.
