@UPGBasketball Completes Season Sweep Of D'Youville With Road Win Saturday Afternoon

BUFFALO, N.Y.- The Pitt-Greensburg men's basketball team (6-12, 4-9 AMCC) completed the season sweep of D'Youville (5-12, 2-9 AMCC) with a 74-68 victory in an Allegheny Mountain Collegiate Conference matchup Saturday afternoon in the College Center Gymnasium. Pitt-Greensburg defeated D'Youville 84-69 on Dec. 9 and completed the season-sweep with the victory Saturday in Buffalo. 

Joe Mancini led the way for the Bobcats with 18 points, connecting on 4-of-9 from three-point distance, while Cam Seigfreid added 16 and Brady Kingston followed with a career-high 13 points. 

Jeremy VanDuluitgaarden paced the Spartans with a game-high 25 points and secured a double-double with 12 rebounds, seven of which came on the offensive glass. Will VanAuken aided the Spartans hauling down a game-high 13 rebounds to go along with eight points. 

Both teams connected on long distance shots through the 40 minutes, as the Bobcats connected of 10-of-25, while the Spartans hit 9-of-30. Pitt-Greensburg also used the free-throw line to its advantage making 18-of-21 compared to just 9-of-12 from D'Youville. 

Despite holding a 42-37 rebounding advantage, including an 18-10 margin on the offensive glass, the Spartans held just a 14-10 lead in second chance points. 

Pitt-Greensburg put together a solid opening half as it led for much of the opening 20 minutes. D'Youville matched its largest lead, 13-11 on a three-pointer by VanDuluitgaarden with 12:45 left. 

The Bobcats quickly retook the lead, 15-13, as Kingston tied the game with a layup and Burt nailed a jumper with just under 12 minutes left in the half. Pitt-Greensburg led by as much as 14 in the first half and took a 38-33 advantage into the locker room at halftime. 

D'Youville opened the second half on a 9-0 run to jump back into the lead (42-38), but two free-throws from Kingston and a three-ball from Mancini put the Bobcats back in front (43-42). 

Juan Miguel Rosales quickly put the Spartans back ahead (44-43) with a two-point jumper, but the Bobcats answered with a 7-0 run to take the lead back for good. 

Pitt-Greensburg pushed its lead to 71-59 with 1:48 left in the game, but the Spartans continued to chip away at the deficit, and got within three with just 16 seconds left, but Mancini converted 2-of-2 from the line and Kingston made a three to send the Bobcats to the 74-68 win.

Pitt-Greensburg closes out its nonconference schedule Wednesday evening as it takes to the road to face Valley Forge at 6 pm.
