Balanced Scoring Pushes Saints Past Trolls

The Holy Cross men's basketball team continued their conference play today, when they played host to the Trinity Christian College Trolls. The Saints offense was clicking early and often in today's game, with Tommy Snyder leading the way with 14 points in the half. The Saints' ability to efficiently shoot from the field and from the charity stripe in the first half would give them a 41-30 lead. Coming out of halftime, the Saints offense did not slow down, and they managed to hit 6 three-pointers in the second half. The Saints efficiency from deep would stretch the lead even further and would lead to an 81-57 Saints victory. With the win, Holy Cross improves to 9-9 overall and 5-6 in conference play, while the Trolls drop to 6-10 and 2-8.
