Box Score
Philadelphia - Chris Fouch came off the bench to score 17 points and Jamie Harris added 14 points and five assists as Drexel defeated George Mason in the Daskalakis Athletic Center, 73-60. It was the fifth win in the last six games for the Dragons, who improved to 9-4 in the CAA.
The Dragons (14-11) shot 52 percent from the floor in the second half and went 20-for-25 from the line over the final 20 minutes to preserve the win. Mason (15-9, 10-3) trailed by just two early in the half after Cam Long sank a three-pointer, but that was as close as they would come the rest of the way. Fouch had nine of his 17 in the final 20 minutes as Drexel sealed the game from the charity stripe. Drexel made 10 of its final 12 free throw attempts in the final 2:49. Evan Neisler, who led the team with nine rebounds, was 7-for-8 from the line, all late in the game, as Drexel snapped a four-game losing streak against the Patriots in front of a sparse crowd due to the blizzard which hit the Northeast on Friday night and Saturday morning.
Mason opened up and early 18-6 lead as the Dragons made just one of their first nine shots. In the game, the Patriots lead didn't last for long as the Dragons went on a 21-2 run late in the half. Drexel had four three-pointers during that stretch, two from Fouch and one each from Gerald Colds and Jamie Harris. Drexel took a 29-24 to intermission and never trailed again in the contest.
The Dragons had four players in double figures scoring. Harris finished 5-for-8 from the floor and scored 14 points, while Gerald Colds and Samme Givens each added 10 points. Kevin Phillip played well off the bench, scoring six points and picking up seven boards.
Mike Morrison and Long each had 17 points to lead Mason. Ryan Pearson added 12 points and nine rebounds, but was just 5-for-17 from the floor. Mason struggled from the line, making just 11 of its 24 attempts and shot 44 percent from the line in the second half.
Drexel is back in action on Wednesday night. The Dragons face Hofstra in Hempstead, N.Y., at 7 p.m.
