 Yuseff
Carr scored a career-high 19 points to spark the Mountaineers offense to a 60
point showing in the second half.
“Yuseff played great tonight,” said head
coach Rich Miller. “He really stepped up for us and was a dominating presence in
the paint tonight.”
The Mountaineers got out of the blocks
slowly, registering 15 fouls in the first half while shooting 40.5% from the
field as Lock Haven carried a 37-36 lead into the intermission.
“It wasn’t pretty to watch in the first
half,” said Miller. “We made some adjustments at the half and decided we would
try to change the tempo of our game. The guys did a nice job executing the game
plan in the second half.
Mansfield came out firing on all
cylinders in the second half as the Mountaineers opened with a 20-9 run to take
a 56-46 lead with 13 minutes to play.
Mansfield would slowly pull away
throughout the next 12 minutes, building the lead up to as much as 25 points at
96-71 with under a minute to play.
The Mountaineers bounced back in the
second half by shooting 66.7% from the field and scoring 60 points.
Sophomore transfer Ryan Callahan spurred
the Mountaineers offense in the second half, recording 14 of his 16 points after
the intermission.
Carr led the way for the Mountaineers
with a career-high 19 points while pulling down eight rebounds and registering
two blocks. Senior Kevin Hill scored 16 points while pulling down five boards
and junior Chris Greene added 10 points, six rebounds and four assists. 13
Mountaineer players contributed to the scoring effort on the evening.

The Mountaineers finished 52.2% from the
