Men's Basketball Stretches Win Streak to Eight, Hold Off 2nd Half York Rally

The men's basketball team recorded a 73-70 CUNYAC win at York College on Tuesday night in Jamaica, New York.

The visiting Bearcats controlled the opening 20 minutes building a 39-23 lead into the halftime break. They limited York to 28 percent (8-for-29) shooting, including 2-of-12 from three.

The final 12 minutes of the second half proved to be more difficult as the hosts overcame a 58-38 deficit to rally all the way back to get as close as 72-68 with under two minutes left.

The score did not change until York managed to cut the deficit to two points on a pair of free throws by Shamal Grant, Jr. for 72-70 with 30 seconds remaining.

Emil Purisic connected on one of two free throws to build the score to 73-70 and York's last possession missed a three to help the Bearcats win their eighth straight game.

Purisic narrowly missed a double-double with 17 points and nine rebounds to go along with two blocks. Michael Richards tallied 15 points and Jehmehl Fair had 13 points with seven rebounds to keep the Bearcats undefeated in CUNYAC at 9-0.   

Quran Dublin led York with 21 points in the home loss.
