Stonehill finished shooting 59.6-percent (28-for-47) from the field after hitting at a torrid 68.2-percent (15-for-22) in building a 14-pioint (41-27) halftime lead. The Skyhawks were a blistering 6-for-10 (60%) from three-point range and out-rebounded Saint Rose 31-21 for the contest, holding the Golden Knights to just five offensive rebounds to outscore the hosts 11-0 in second chance points. Saint Rose shot 52-percent (26-for-50) from the field, including 55.6% (15-27) in the second half.
With the game tied at 17-17 with 9:44 left in the first half, Stonehill began to take control with a 13-2 run over the next five-plus minutes to open an 11-point (40-19) lead after a three-pointer from freshman Sam Markle (Bethany, Conn./Saint Thomas More) with 4:37 left before halftime.
Stonehill built its lead to 14-points (41-27) when Rudowitz capped the first half with a three-pointer heading into the intermission. The Skyhawks opened the second half with an 11-4 burst to push their lead to 21-points (54-33) after an Almeida layup with 15:05 to play. Saint Rose drew back within 13 (54-41) after a Bromirski three with 12:13 remaining, but Stonehill recovered with an 8-2 push to open a 23-point lead (66-43) after a free-throw by Almeida with 7:25 to go. Hamor buried a three-pointer to give Stonehill a game-high 25-point (74-49) lead with 4:14 to play to ice the victory despite a late Saint Rose push that drew the Golden Knights within 12 points at the final buzzer.
