EASTON, Pa. (AP) — Seth Hinrichs scored 22 points and Nick Petkovich added 21 for Lafayette in an 84-67 win over Colgate Wednesday night, snapping a three-game losing skid for the Leopards.
Jim Mower also had 17 points for the Leopards (12-16, 7-6 Patriot League), who wrapped up a sweep of the regular-season series against the Raiders.
The teams were close for nearly the entire first half, and with 6:17 left before halftime the score was knotted at 21-all. But Mower connected on a 3-pointer, a layup and a foul shot to fuel a 17-7 Lafayette run for a 10-point advantage at the break.
The Leopards cruised from there, outscoring the Raiders 84-67 in the second half to clinch the win.
