BOX SCORE

RINDGE, N.H. - Terrell Ray totaled 24 points and nine rebounds to lead Franklin Pierce University to a 69-58 Northeast-10 men's basketball victory over Southern New Hampshire University at the FPU Fieldhouse Saturday afternoon.  The Ravens improved to 10-12 overall and 5-12 in the NE-10, while the Penmen are now 13-9 and 8-9 in the league.

Ray finished 9-11 from the floor and also handed out three assists.  Kinard Dozier was the other Franklin Pierce player in double figures as he added 15 points, going 3-6 behind the arc.  Dozier also dished out seven assists.

Tory Stapleton (Rahway, N.J.) led SNHU with 14 points, while Stephen Wood (South Jamaica Queens, N.Y.) was 5-5 from the floor and finished with 12 points and nine rebounds.

Franklin Pierce opened the game by scoring the game's first 15 points and held the Penmen scoreless until a basket by Hanell Velez (Woburn, Mass.) 5:15 into the contest.  The Penmen would get the lead down to 10 three times, with a Corey Boland (Union, N.J.) basket with 9:42 left making it 24-14.  A Ray basket 2:40 before halftime gave Franklin Pierce its largest first half lead, 43-25, and the Ravens took a 45-30 lead into the locker room.

The Penmen would attempt to get back into the game with a late 13-1 run capped by a pair of Stapleton free throws with just over three minutes to play that made the score 64-58, but Southern New Hampshire would get no closer.

Franklin Pierce was 16-30 from the floor and 6-11 behind the arc in the first half and was 9-20 from three-point land for the game.  The Ravens also held a 36-28 rebounding advantage.
