MBB: Ravens fall in heartbreaker at Cabrini

RADNOR, Pa. - It was a tough evening for the Rosemont men's basketball team on Tuesday night. The Ravens saw a late lead slip away in the final seconds of an 85-84 loss to neighborhood rival Cabrini at Nerney Field House.

TURNING POINT:
The Ravens and Cavaliers traded leads down the stretch in the second half, with Rosemont eventually grabbing a four-point edge with under 20 seconds to play. However, a DJ Smith 3-pointer would cut that edge to one. After a Rosemont turnover, Voshon Mack's layup with seven seconds left gave the Cavs the 85-84 lead they would never relinquish. A final attempt for a game-winning shot fell short at the buzzer for the Ravens. 

FROM THE BOXSCORE:
- Basil Thompson had a second big scoring game in a row, scoring 23 points on 8-for-8 shooting for the Ravens. Thompson also added nine rebounds on the defensive end for the Ravens. 

- Jacob Simonson had a career high 20 points on the night on 7-of-13 shooting from the floor and 3-of-7 from beyond the three point line. Simonson had four rebounds and two steals.

- Two other Ravens broke into double figures with Keith Blassingale (15 points) and Alex Epps-Ortiz (11 points).

- The Cavaliers were lead by Mack, who had 31 points on the night. Anthony Wright-Dowling had 19 points while DJ Smith added 16.

UP NEXT:
 
- A brief break for Thanksgiving for the Ravens (1-4), who return to action on Nov. 27 with a trip to New York University.  That predates the only pre-holiday CSAC game for the Ravens, a Dec. 1 trip to Wilson College to play the Phoenix for the first time.
