SVC tops Grove City in league tilt

GROVE CITY, Pa. -- The Grove City College men's basketball team dropped a 76-68 decision Wednesday night to visiting Saint Vincent (10-7, 6-6 PAC) in Presidents' Athletic Conference action at the Grove City College Arena. 

Grove City trailed 37-32 at halftime and then trailed 46-35 three minutes into the second half. Grove City charged back with a 9-0 run, sparked by three free throws from sophomore guard Chase Yarberough (Lititz, Pa./Warwick). Senior center Josh Bryan (Salem, Va./Salem) and freshman forward Christian Suceveanu (Pacific Palisades, Calif./Loyola) added tip-ins during the run while freshman guard Daniel Penosky (Fort Mill, S.C./Legion) added a jumper.

However, Saint Vincent used a 12-0 run to re-establish its double-digit lead. Mike Iuzzolino's four-point play with 13 minutes left ignited Saint Vincent's spurt.

Sophomore guard Jonah Bock (Erie, Pa./McDowell) led Grove City with 14 points while Yarberough and sophomore forward Ben Cano (Greenville, Pa./Greenville) both had eight points. Suceveanu chipped in seven points. 

Grove City outrebounded Saint Vincent, 46-39. Suceveanu led Grove City with seven rebounds while Yarberough and Cano each netted five rebounds. 

Grove City finished the game 21 of 64 (33 percent) from the field for the game. The Wolverines hit 10 of 36 (28 percent) attempts in the second half. Saint Vincent converted 24 of 55 (44 percent) field goal attempts. 

Junior forward Jon Weir (Venetia, Pa./Quaker Valley) and sophomore forward John Ward (Charlotte, N.C./Covenant Day) both had three assists for Grove City. Grove City had 13 turnovers while Saint Vincent turned over the ball 10 times. 

Jaden Gales led the Bearcats with 22 points.
