LA PLUME, PA — After falling behind early in the contest, Albright College raced out to a sixteen point advantage at the half and coasted the remainder of the way as the Lions captured the 2006 ECAC Division III Southern Men's Basketball Championship with a convincing 92-72 victory over Pitt-Greensburg.
