The Cheyney – West Chester men's game did not disappoint those fans used to seeing a good college basketball contest.

In the second half the Wolves quickly trimmed the lead to one (37-36) by starting the period on an 8-2 spurt.  Cheyney was finally able to take a 61-60 lead after a three-pointer by Ayetigbo with just over eight minutes to play.  Two minutes later and the contest knotted at 63, the Golden Rams went on an 8-0 to take control.  Cheyney briefly trimmed the deficit to six but would get no closer. 

Five Golden Rams scored double figures.  They were led by Cory Blake's 14.  Matt Wisely added 16 rebounds.

Cheyney ends the season on Wednesday night at Shippensburg.
