COBLESKILL - The SUNY Cobleskill men’s basketball team could not overcome a slow start and ended up on the losing end of a 75-62 score versus the visiting Wildcats of Penn College in North Eastern Athletic Conference (NEAC) play on Sunday afternoon at the Iorio Gymnasium. The loss drops the Fighting Tigers to 2-15 overall on the campaign including a 2-9 mark in conference games while the Wildcats improve to 7-12 overall with a 5-9 record in NEAC action.
The Wildcats came out on fire offensively using long range shooting to jump out to an early 14-2 advantage which eventually led to a 39-24 lead at the half. The visors eventually pushed their lead to 19 points at 57-38 with 9:01 left in regulation before Cobleskill went on a 20-to-7 run highlighted by 15 points from senior swingman Joel Costello, Middleburgh, N.Y., Middleburgh High School/Tompkins-Cortland Community College, which cut the deficit to six points at 64-58 with 2:27 left to play. However down the stretch the visitors from Williamstown, Pa. outscored the Fighting Tigers 8-to-4 to put the game out of reach as secure the victory.
Joel Costello posted personal single game career highs in: points with 30, rebounds with 13, and steals with six to go with two assists and two blocked shots to key the comeback connecting on 10-of-20 field goal attempts including 3-of-5 from three point range along with a perfect 7-for-7 at the free throw line on the afternoon.
Senior guard Malik Chambers, West Point, N.Y., James I. O’Neil High School, was also a factor in the game for the home team with 17 points and four rebounds.
