(ST. JOHN'S, NFLD.) - The UPEI Panthers broke away in the second quarter on their way to an 88-62 win over the Memorial Sea-Hawks in AUS men's basketball on Saturday at the Field House.
After a fairly even opening quarter, the Sea-Hawks started the second quarter with a three pointer from Jacob Ranton (Waterloo, Ont.) tying it 18-18, but a subsequent 25-6 run turned the momentum in favour of the visitors.
After the third the Panthers had a 27-point lead over Memorial. The Sea-Hawks outscored the Panthers by one point in the fourth but couldn't make a dent in UPEI's lead.
Tyler Scott (Halifax, N.S.) led the Panthers in double-figures with 25 points while Geoff Doane (St. Margaret's Bay, N.S.) added 15 points and seven rebounds off the bench.
