ALFRED, NY – Sam Gioia (West Seneca, NY/West Seneca West) recorded 14 points and three steals as the Hilbert College men’s basketball team dropped its third straight game, 84-76, to Alfred University on Tuesday night.  The loss brings the Hawks record to 0-3 while Alfred moves to 2-1.

 

After falling behind 10-2 to begin the game, the Hawks rallied back to take a 33-30 halftime advantage behind Keon Rembert’s (Brooklyn, NY/Archbishop Walsh) eight points and six boards.  The second half was a different story, as the Saxons shot a blistering 52 percent from the floor, including 60% behind the three-point arc, as they outscored Hilbert 54-43 on their way to victory. 

 

Freshman Dallas Reinard (Smethport, PA/Smethport) added four three-pointers and 13 points, while Rembert finished the game with 11 points, nine rebounds and three blocks.  For Alfred, Quentin Bryant had a game-high 31 points, and Dillon Stein recorded a double-double with 20 points and 16 boards.

 

The Hawks return to action on Friday, December 3rd with their Allegheny Mountain Collegiate Conference opener at La Roche College in Pittsburg, PA.  Game time is at 8:00 PM.
