WALTHAM, Mass. – The College of Saint Rose had its 2021-22 season draw to a close with tonight's 93-65 Northeast-10 Conference Championship Quarterfinal setback at Bentley.

Bentley (20-4), which is ranked #20 in the most recent NABC Coaches National Poll and #13 in the D2SIDA Media Poll, shot 53.0 percent (35-for-66) from the floor, including 48.4 percent (15-for-31) from the arc, and held the Golden Knights (14-12) to 23.5 percent (4-for-17) shooting from long range to improve to 13-1 at home.
 
Freshman guard Tray Alexander scored a career-high 24 points and freshman forward Shane O'Dell finished with 16 points and five rebounds to pace Saint Rose (14-12).
 
Graduate student guard Jordan Mello-Klein finished with 22 points to lead five Falcons in twin-figures scoring. He also pulled down nine rebounds and handed out five assists.
 
Bentley took control by jumping out to an 18-5 lead eight minutes into the ballgame and walked in the locker room up 46-20 at the break. The Falcons maintained a 20-point advantage throughout the final 20 minutes.
