STOKES, HORGAN LEAD MONARCHS PAST CHESTNUT HILL
PHILADELPHIA -- Jamar Stokes
tossed in a tea-high 23 points while Brian Horgan added 19 to power the
King's College men's basketball team to a 84-70 victory over Chestnut Hill
College Tuesday in Philadelphia.
King's started out quickly with a 19-6 run over the first 6:16 of the game
and took a comfortable 44-22 lead into the halftime break.
In the second half, a scrappy Chestnut Hill team would cut into the lead
several times before King's would counter. Chestnut Hill cut the Monarch
advantage to 14 points but would draw no closer.
Horgan added 10 rebounds, four assists, and four steals, while Dave Marks
netted 10 points. Marty O'Hora Chipped in with 10 points and 11
rebounds.
King's, which improved to 6-1, will next host two-time defending MAC
Commonwealth Conference champion Elizabethtown College on Friday at 7:30
p.m. The game, however, will be played at Wilkes University due to
setup for the annual Century Club Dinner slated for Saturday in Scandlon
Gymnasium
