ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP)—Sophomore guard Jeremy Goode had 14 points and four steals, and Mount St. Mary’s had a 62-58 victory over Navy in a nonconference men’s basketball game Monday night.
The Mount (2-4) never trailed, took advantage of the Midshipmen’s early shooting woes and opened the game on a 13-0 run. Navy (3-7), which was led by senior Greg Sprink with 16 points and a team-high nine rebounds, clawed back and cut Mount St. Mary’s lead to one point twice in the first half before going into the break trailing, 32-29.
The Mount started the second half shooting 3-of-23 from the field but converted enough free throws down the stretch to hold on for the win.
Junior forward Sam Atupem had 11 points and eight rebounds for Mount St. Mary’s and senior guard Chris Vann added 11 points. Junior guard Kaleo Kina came off the bench for Navy and finished with 16 points, seven rebounds and three assists. Sophomore guard Chris Harris added 15.
