RWU Surges Late To Top Scots

Traveling to Bristol, Rhode Island this evening for a rescheduled Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) matchup against the Hawks of Roger Williams, Gordon College Men's Basketball came out strong in the first half before falling to their hosts, 101-80.

Michael Makiej was everywhere on the court as the sophomore booked 24 points and 13 rebounds. Additionally, Bryce Smith chipped in 15 points, Parker Omslaer added 12, while Treyton Tebbs netted 11 in tonight's game.

For RWU, Mac Annuss led the way with a game-high 28 points, Drew Hart was not far behind with 20 points, and Will Macdonald and John Ah Kao tacked on 16 and 15 points, respectively.

How It Happened
  • After the Hawks opened the game, 5-0 the Scots began to get in rhythm thanks to a feed from Smith, Makiej knocked in a layup to lock the game up at 11-all just under seven minutes into the first half. However, RWU continued to remain on top, carrying a slim lead before leading by eight with 7:04 on the clock. For the next four minutes, Gordon continued to battle and once again Makiej tied the game up, but this time at 33 with just under four minutes left in the first. Neither team could miss for the next two and a half minutes with both sides putting up four shots each and going a perfect 4-4 to bring the score to RWU 44-43 Gordon at the 1:25 mark. Makiej and Smith hit the final two layups of the half to put the blue and white on top by three points at the break (47-44).
  • The hot-handed Makiej kept it rolling coming out of the locker room, with a tip-in followed by a three from Zach Quanico to give Gordon an eight-point edge. Back to back three pointers from Annus and Macdonald swung the advantage in the home team's favor, 57-56. RWU slowly built upon their lead to go on top by as many as 24 before securing the 21 point win over the Scots.
