Notes: Southern New Hampshire improved to 7-0 for the first time since the 2003-04 season with an 86-85 win at crosstown-rival Saint Anselm on Wednesday ... trailing by 11 with under seven minutes to play, the Penmen ripped off a 17-3 run to transform the deficit into a thee-point lead with three minutes to go ... with the game tied at 85 with 17.2 seconds on the clock, senior Chris Walters (Stamford, Conn.) hit one of two from the line and Saint Anselm would not get off a shot in the closing seconds ... Walters recorded 26 points (9-16 FG, 3-6 3-FG, 5-10 FT), six rebounds, three assists and two blocks, while fellow senior Dimitri Floras (Merrimack, N.H.) poured in 21 points (7-15 FG, 4-8 3-FG, 3-4 FT), including 15 in the second half, while making four steals and grabbing three rebounds ... junior Daquaise Andrews (Queens, N.Y.) tallied 15 points (6-16 FG, 1-3 3-FG, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, five assists and three steals ... sophomore Ryogo Sumino (Kanagawa, Japan) was also in double figures with a career-high 11 points (5-7 FG, 1-2 3-FG).

Notes: Assumption was denied back-to-back wins for the first time this season Wednesday when it suffered a 69-67 defeat at Saint Michael's ... the Greyhounds erased a nine-point deficit to eventually tie the game, 63-63, with less than two minutes remaining ... Assumption trailed, 68-67, and had the ball after Saint Michael's missed the front end of a 1-and-1 with 14 seconds left, but the Greyhounds would come up empty on the ensuing possession after a pair of shots did not fall ... Saint Michael's added another free throw with less than a second remaining ... freshman Matthew Kelly paced Assumption with 19 points (6-8 FG, 4-5 3-FG, 3-3 FT), while sophomore Branislav Vujadinovic posted 14 points (6-16 FG, 2-9 3-FG), seven rebounds and three assists ... sophomore Joe Sullivan was also in double figures with 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-2 FT) and seven boards.
