Tomcats Improve to 9-0 at Home

GREENVILLE, Pa. — Thiel moved one step closer to clinching the top seed in the Presidents' Athletic Conference with 69-55 win over visiting Waynesburg on Saturday at Beeghly Gymnasium.

The Tomcats hold a two-game lead in the conference with three games to play. Second-place Thomas More was one game back in the standings until falling to Washington & Jefferson on Saturday.

With the win, Thiel improves to 9-0 at home this season. A win over Grove City on Wednesday would complete a perfect season at Beeghly Gymnasium.

Blair Rozenblad (Youngstown, Ohio, Kennedy Catholic) had 17 points and 15 rebounds for his 10th double-double of the season. The Thiel sophomore turned it on in the second half after posting just three points before the break.

Thiel also pulled away in the second half. The Tomcats trailed by eight points at one point before battling back to take a five-point lead at the half. In the second half, they showed why they lead the conference, increasing the lead to 25 at one point.

Lance Randall (Canfield, Ohio, Ursuline), Anthony Harvey (New Castle, Pa., New Castle) and Aundra Jones (Youngstown, Ohio, Kennedy Catholic) joined Rozenblad in double-figures with Randall scoring 12 points while Jones and Harvey tallied 11, respectively. Jones had a solid game all around with six blocks and seven rebounds.

Devon Adams (Philadelphia, Pa., George Junior Republic) had a great game creating scoring opportunities for his teammates. He totaled a career-high 11 assists, eclipsing his previous high of 10, which came during his freshman season.

Only one player reached double-figures for Waynesburg as Aaron Cromwell led the team with 10 points. It was the third straight game Thiel held its opponent under 60 points.

Following the home game against Grove City on Wednesday, the Tomcats will wrap up the regular season with away games at Westminster and Thomas More.
