Raiders pull away after break
Colgate's 73-55 win Wednesday at Binghamton was a tale of two halves.

The first half was an even affair that ended with the Raiders (6-3) up 31-29 after a Kyle Roemer layup just before the break. But after Binghamton tied it to open the second half, it was pretty much all Colgate the rest of the way.

The Raiders scored the next five points and pushed the advantage to as many as 17 points.

Colgate actually made one more field goal in the first half (13-29, 44.8 percent), but was much more acccurate after the break, hitting 12 of 19 (63.2 percent). And after shooting just two free throws (1 made) in the first half, the Raiders got to the line 22 times in the second, making 16.

The Raiders also played better D after intermission. After Binghamton shot 12 for 25 from the field in the first, Colgate held them to 9 for 37 (24.3 percent) in the second.

Roemer led Colgate with 21 points. Kendall Chones added 15, Tim Pounds 14 (all in the second half) and Daniel Waddy had 10. Alex Woodhouse had 8 rebounds (sharing team honors with Chones) and a career-high 5 blocks in 19 minutes off the bench.
