RADNOR, PA – The Cabrini men's basketball team put on a dominant performance today at Nerney Field House, as the Cavaliers scored a 92-64 win over the visiting Centenary University Cyclones.

Today's victory improved the Blue and White to 16-3 overall and 11-2 in the Colonial States Athletic Conference.

Cabrini showed no let-up in the second half, as it connected on 17-29 from the field.  

The Cavaliers' lead swelled to 77-37 midway through the second half, as Monroe completed his triple-double with an off the backboard alley-oop to Wright-Downing.

Minutes later, it was another Wright-Downing fast break dunk that gave the Blue and White its largest lead of the afternoon. The junior was on the business end of a dish from sophomore Brett Foster, giving Cabrini an 87-46 lead with 6:36 to play.

While Cabrini's offensive attack was hitting on all cylinders, its defensive effort was just as impressive. The Cavaliers held Centenary to just .359 shooting, a defensive season low for Cabrini. The Blue and White also forced 18 turnovers, among its best efforts of the season.

Senior Deryl Bagwell, who was honored before tip for joining the Cavaliers' 1,000 career point club, finished the day with eight points, while junior Mike Doyle added seven.
