SCRANTON, PA. -- Marywood handed Gwynedd-Mercy a 90-65 Colonial States Athletic Conference defeat Monday night.

The Griffins (8-5, 3-3 CSAC) went through six-minute span without a field goal early in the first half to fall into a hole they could not recover from.

Junior Brendan Stanton (Harleysville, Pa./Lansdale Catholic) had a team and career-high 19 points and added seven rebounds, but GMC shot just 9-of-27 (33.3%) in the first stanza compared to Marywood's 18-of-32 (56.3%) stint. The Pacers would lead 44-23 at the break.

Matt Lepri netted a game-high 25 points while teammate Brent Keyes added 20 for Marywood (5-9, 4-3 CSAC).

Junior Frank Champion (Northfield, N.J./Mainland) was the only other Griffin in double figures, finishing with 10 points.

Keyes hit six of the Pacer's 10 three-pointers.

Gwynedd-Mercy will look to rebound on Wednesday when they take on Centenary here at the Griffin Complex in a CSAC Doubleheader. The women tip it off at 6 p.m. followed by the men at 8 p.m.
