Men's Basketball Falls in MAC Commonwealth Championship

ST. DAVIDS, Pa.– Eastern University Men's Basketball dropped a 75-71 heartbreaker to the visiting Hood College Blazers in tremendously competitive MAC Commonwealth Championship game. The Eagles led by three points with two minutes to play, but the Blazers pulled within one on a pair of free throws and took the lead on an incredible finish from tournament MVP Mason Wang. Playing from behind, the Eagles wound up having to foul and Hood made foul shots to secure the university's first MAC Commonwealth Championship. Draig Cooley led the Eagles with 24 points on 9-of-12 shooting.
