The SUNY Cobleskill men’s basketball team took to the road on Tuesday to lose a 101-48 decision to the host Engineers of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) in a non-league pre-Thanksgiving match-up. With the loss the Fighting Tigers fall to 0-6 overall on the season while RPI improves to 4-0 overall on the season to date.
The Fighting Tigers lack of inside muscle was exploited by the Engineers throughout the contest as RPI held a 49-28 advantage on the glass while outscoring Cobleskill in the paint by a 48-24 margin.
Senior forward Juwan Malone, Brooklyn, N.Y., Brooklyn Collegiate High School/Fulton-Montgomery Community College, led the team in scoring with 11 points to go with five rebounds and a blocked shot while sophomore forward Naphtaili Regilus, Roselle, N.J., Abraham Clark High School/Essex Community College, turned in an eight-point, seven rebound, two steal effort.
Cobleskill will next be in action after the holiday when they host they return to Troy, N.Y. on Thursday December 2 for a non-league meeting with the Gators of Sage College beginning at 7:30 p.m.
