57-43 Stags; 3:30 in the 2nd

• 57-43 Stags with 3:30 to play in regulation.
  
• Loose-ball foul on Hawkins following a miss by Jovan Robinson keeps the ball on the Golden Griffs' end of the floor.
  
• Three-point shot from the corner by Frank Turner. 57-43 Stags.
  
• Yorel Hawkins is the beneficiary of a fantastic feed from Jon Han in the lane. Hawkins does not convert the shot, but does go to the line for a pair. He'll hit them both. 57-40 Stags.
  
• Allen hits a mid-ranger, but Pawel Malesa answers with a three-point shot of his own. Nice look. 55-40 Fairfield.
  
• Next on tap: the Stags take on the Niagara Purple Eagles. The defending MAAC champs are on a tri-state area road trip, as they take on Saint Peter's College as we speak. They'll be used to the territory, but hopefully the Stags will be ready for an important, challenging conference game.
