Gordon College Men's Basketball hosted the Lasell University Lasers tonight for their home-opener where the visitors defeated the Fighting Scots, 93-74.

The Scots' Alex Daniel led the way with 15 points off the bench, Bernie McGuinness had 14 points, Micah Steely added 11, while Ryan Brooks chipped in 10 points.

Lasell was led by Marcus Lewis who had 22 points and Che Hanks who had a double-double with 17 points and 11 assists.

How It Happened

• Lasell bolted out to a 10-point lead in the opening minutes, but a trio of jumpers from behind the arc from Steely lifted the Scots within two with 9:06 to go in the half (20-18).
• During a 60 second span, Daniel scored seven straight Gordon points to lock up the scoreboard before trailing by one point with 6:02 on the clock. The Lasers began to regroup and slightly widen the gap to 44-38 at the break.
• In the second, the visitors kicked off the half with a dunk to set the tempo and eventually stretched their advantage to double digits once again, but Gordon's Bryce Smith found the bottom of the net to make it a seven-point game. However, the Lasers continued to push and came out with the eventual win.
