Grumley nets 1,000th point in loss to Gannon

CLARION, Pa. – Senior Cameron Grumley netted his 1,000th point in a Clarion uniform but the Golden Eagles fell at home to Gannon Saturday afternoon, 87-65.

Both teams came out with intensity as the first half was a back and forth affair with Clarion holding a lead as big as seven points. Gannon's Frank Webb Jr. took the inbound pass and went coast to coast at the buzzer to give the Golden Knights a slim 35-33 advantage at the half.

Unfortunately, Gannon flexed its muscle early in the 2nd  half, opening up on a 14-4 run to stretch their lead to double-digits and put the game out of reach.
Gannon improves 11-5 and 7-3 in the PSAC while Clarion moves to 3-14 and 0-11 in league play.

Grumley finished with 23 points and 9 rebounds on his historic afternoon, becoming the 30th player in school history to score 1,000 points. His 1st half breakaway slam dunk brought the fans to their feet in Tippin Gymnasium.

Freshman Maqi Watson played 37 minutes and netted 14 points along with 3 blocks and 3 rebounds.  Fellow freshman Mason Mraz chipped in 12 points including 3 of 5 from three point range.

Clarion shot 47% from the floor on the day but had a tough time slowing down the Golden Knights attack in the 2nd  half, as they shot over 55%.

Gannon also held a significant 47-25 edge in rebounds on the day.

Clarion will play their next two on the road, starting with a trip to Edinboro University this Wednesday (Jan 17).  Tip-off is set for 7:30pm.
