GOLDEN KNIGHTS REMAIN UNBEATEN

Sayre Scores A Season-High 19 Points To Help Lead Saint Rose


ALBANY-The College of Saint Rose had another outstanding defensive effort to upend visiting Northeast-10 Conference rival Le Moyne 62-54 tonight at the Daniel P. Nolan Gymnasium. The Golden Knights (9-0/4-0 NE-10) forced their Upstate Challenge rival  Dolphins into 21 miscues that they turned into 20 points.
 
"We played good defense against a very challenging Le Moyne offense tonight. Our team DNA is becoming that of a defensive unit. I am proud of the way our guys dig in and stay the course even when the ball is not going in," said head coach Brian Beaury.
 
Senior forward Tyler Sayre scored 11 of his season-high 19 points in the second half to lead Saint Rose (9-0/4-0 NE-10). Also, junior guard Mical-Ryan Boyd tossed in 14 points while senior guard Damon Coleman and junior forward Julian Lipinski scored eight apiece.
 
Saint Rose led by 12, 35-23, after Sayre knocked down a jumper to open the second half. The Dolphins then outscored the Golden Knights 23-14 throughout the ensuing 10 minutes to cut their deficit to three, 49-46, when sophomore guard C.J. Asuncion-Byrd put back his own miss.
 
It was still a three point, 52-49, affair four minutes later when Le Moyne junior guard Anthony Richards knocked down a 3-pointer. However, the Golden Knights limited the Dolphins to a pair of field goals throughout the final 4:30 to keep their unblemished record intact.
 
Asuncion-Byrd finished with 17 points and junior guard Tanner Hyland added 10 in 24 minutes off the bench to lead Le Moyne.
 
Looking ahead, both teams are back home Saturday. Saint Rose welcomes Southern Connecticut State for a 3:30 pm tip, while the Dolphins host Adelphi at 2:00 pm.
