Greyhound Classic
The Greyhounds dropped their final non-conference game
before the semester break, falling to NCAA Division I Lafayette College, 73-56,
in a game at Kirby
Sports Center.
Moravian jumped out to a 7-2 lead in the
game's first three minutes and led 11-6 with 14:14 remaining in the first half
before the Leopards went on a 17-0 run, taking the lead for good. Moravian pulled back within six points at
23-17 with 7:14 remaining before halftime but Lafayette would pull ahead 37-26 at the
break. The Greyhounds shot just 22
percent (seven of 32) in the first half, making two of 13 three-pointers and
ten of 11 free throws. Lafayette made 14
of 30 first half field goals (46.7 percent), going four of eight behind the
three-point line and five of six at the foul line. In the second half, the Leopards would pull
ahead by 15 points at 58-43 with 6:05 left in the game. However, Moravian freshman guard Ryan Miller (Easton,
PA/Easton
HS) connected on back-to-back three-pointers to cut the lead to nine at
58-49. Lafayette responded with a 7-0 run to put the
game out of reach. Moravian would make 19 of 62 field goals (30.6 percent) for
the game, including five of 24 three-pointers. The Greyhounds also made 13 of 18 free throws
in the game but were out-rebounded 47 to 33. Senior forward Brandon Zaleski (Hackettstown, NJ/Hackettstown
HS) led Moravian and all scorers with 21 points. Zaleski
also added a team high eight rebounds while junior forward Zach Zsilavecz (Bethlehem, PA/Liberty
HS) added 12 points, seven rebounds and two steals for the Greyhounds. Miller
tied his career high with ten points, and he added four rebounds. Junior
forward Ed Reid (Pen Argyl,
