FAIRFIELD, Conn. (AP) -- Ben Mockford scored 28 points and Stefan Perunicic added 21 as St. Francis (N.Y.) posted its highest point total of the season with a 99-84 Northeast Conference victory over Sacred Heart on Saturday.
Mockford, whose total was the highest by a Terriers player this season, made 10 of 15 shots, including 8 of 13 on 3-pointers.
St. Francis (6-9, 3-1) shot 58.2 percent (32 of 55) for the game and the Pioneers (7-10, 1-3) shot 51.7 percent (30 of 58).
