afternoon at Alumni Gymnasium.

draining 12 of 23 shots from the field (56.5 percent) in the final
20 minutes play. Rider also held a commanding 46-33 advantage
in rebounding.
The Royals also received 17 points from junior guard Michael Barr (North Wales, Pa./Lansdale
Catholic), seven points, three rebounds, and two assists
from senior guard Travis Farrell (Middletown, NJ/Christian Brothers
Academy), and four points, six rebounds, an assist, and a

Daniel Stewart led Rider with 16 points and a game-high 13
rebounds and Junior Fortunat and Anthony Myles combined for 26
points and 14 rebounds.
