Men's Basketball Improves to 4-1

Men's Basketball Improves to 4-1

The Hawks got back on track on Tuesday evening with a convincing 83-48 win over Bryant and Stratton Rochester. 

Ike Sheppard continued his impressive play leading the Hawks with a impressive presense both inside and out, ending the game with 21 points and 10 rebounds. Daniel Barrera was also very impressive for the Hawks on both the offensive and the defensive end, scoring a season high 13 points including a number of highlight plays above the rim. Asa Beyah filled the stat sheet, scoring 9 points, grabbing 4 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 assists while continuing his impressive defensive play. Jordan Drain also contributed heavily to the victory with a few highlight plays above the rim finishing with 10 points. 

In a game where 10 Hawks scored, Mohawk Valley's heavy ball pressure increased the tempo of the game and forced Bryant and Stratton into 19 turnovers on the evening. 

"We got better today. We had the opportunity to get a number of our players on the floor and received some great contributions. We look forward to another opportunity to get better Saturday afternoon in Johnstown." 

The 4-1 Hawks will return to action Saturday afternoon at Fulton Montgomery Community College as they take on the Raiders in Johnstown, New York.
