BU Men Head to West Point
The Binghamton Bearcats men's basketball team travels to West Point on Wednesday night to face Army at 7 PM (air at 6:45 on News Radio 1290 WNBF). Binghamton rolled to an 85-66 victory over Delaware State Saturday at the Events Center. That wins puts the Bearcats' record at 8-5 which equals the overall win total of last year's team. It also is the most non-conference wins of any Binghamton team.
The Bearcats were sparked by the three-point shooting of Fard Muhammad who scored a team-high 16 points and made 5-7 three-point shots. Muhammad made the start in place of J.C. Show who is sidelined for the season with a ruptured triceps muscle. Yosef Yacob nailed 14 points and Everson Davis connected for ten points for the Bearcats.
The Black Knights are 5-6 before tonight's (Monday's) game at St. Bonaventure. Army is a member of the Patriot League.
The Bearcats return home to host Marywood on Friday, December 30 at 4 PM. The game is part of a doubleheader at the Events Center. The BU women host Georgian Court beginning at 2 PM.
