Waterbury, CT (November 24, 2012) – The Queens College
men's basketball team was unable to pick up its first
win of the 2012-2013 season against the Post University Eagles,
losing the contest on Saturday afternoon by the score of 83-67.
The game started with the Knights going on a quick 5-0 run,
before ending the first half down just 13, 43-30. Post
University started the second half outscoring the Knights 5-1, to
make it 48-31, the Knights answered with a 9-0 run with just 4
minutes gone by in the half to cut the lead to 8 at 48-40. In that
9-0 run, junior Patrick Parker-Knights team leader with 27 total

and made a jumper.
Later in the half, Patrick Modzelewski landed a three pointer to
put the Knights within just five against the Eagles 56-51 halfway
through the half. That was as close as the Knights would get as
they and Post would swap buckets the rest of the way, leading to a
Post win as the clock wound down to zero and the Knights dropped
their fifth game of the season.
