HAMILTON, N.Y. (AP) — Vlad Moldoveanu scored 26 points and grabbed nine rebounds as American University defeated Colgate 66-57 Saturday.
The Eagles (12-6, 2-1 Patriot League) took charge in the second half with an 8-0 run. Moldoveanu started it with a 3-pointer at 12:37 and ended it 2 minutes later with a pair of free throws with 10:26 left.
That gave the Eagles a 43-35 lead, and even though the Raiders (1-15, 0-3) twice pulled to within two, they came no closer and suffered their fourth straight loss.
It was the 11th time this season that Moldoveanu, the Patriot League’s second-leading scorer, had at least 20 points in a game. That helped American beat Colgate for the 19th time in 23 meetings.
