Brockport State 88, Buffalo State 85

BROCKPORT, NY — Senior Ben Bellucci scored 21 of his game-high 34 points in the second half and Jerry Cheves hit four consecutive 3-pointers as the SUNY Brockport Men’s Basketball Team turned an eight-point second half deficit around with an 88-85 State University of New York Athletic Conference (SUNYAC) victory over Buffalo State Friday night in Tuttle North Gym in Brockport.

Brockport (7-7, 3-2 SUNYAC) trailed by eight with 16 minutes left in the second half when Cheves exploded for four straight 3-point shots over a three-minute stretch to bring the Golden Eagles into a 60-60 tie with the Bengals (9-6, 3-3 SUNYAC). The score bounced back and forth over the next six minutes before Brockport took the lead for good at 72-21 with just over seven minutes left to play.

Brockport led by as many as seven down the stretch but Buffalo State cut the lead to 2 with 57 seconds left before a Bellucci driving layup gave the Golden Eagles a four-point advantage with under 20 seconds left.

Cheves finished with 12 points while John Rother chipped in 16 and Kenny Amparo added 15.
