Box Score
BRONXVILLE, N.Y.—Despite a team-high 19 points by Gryphon center Graham Gilleran (San Francisco, Calif./Archbishop Riordan), Sarah Lawrence College men's basketball was tripped up by College of Mount Saint Vincent, 63-45, in a non-conference game at Noyes Court at Campbell Sports Center on Tuesday.

Sarah Lawrence (5-8) opened the scoring on a layup by reigning Hudson Valley Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Player of the Week Stevan Radosavljevic (Lazarevac, Serbia/Grammar School Lazarevac). Rookie Brendan O'Connell (Andover, Mass./Phillips Academy Andover) added a layup and four points by Gilleran gave SLC an early 8-2 lead.

From there, Mount Saint Vincent (2-12) was in the driver's seat and rattled off 22 unanswered points for a 22-8 advantage. The Gryphons fought back with six straight points and narrowed the gap to 34-23 at halftime. Gilleran totaled 10 points in the period, while Radosavljevic collected 10 rebounds.

The Dolphins kept offensive momentum into the second half, leading by as much as 21 points, 50-29. SLC cut the deficit to 14 but was unable to stave off the eventual 63-45 defeat.

Gilleran's 19 points along with 12 rebounds earned him his third double-double of his rookie season. Classmate Mat Gerak (Monroe, Conn./Masuk) posted a dozen points, while Radosavljevic led the team with 17 boards to go with eight points.

For CMSV, Brandon Serrano led all players with 22 points. Antonio Johnson scored 19 points, and Kahlil Shorter added 11. Kevin Henry led the Dolphins with 11 rebounds.

The 18 point margin of defeat follows SLC's 89-18 loss to CMSV in the team's previous meeting last season.
