Radnor, PA – Marywood University had their three-game win streak snapped and for the second straight season, the Cabrini men's basketball team is the No. 1 seed in the Colonial States Athletic Conference (CSAC) Tournament following a 90-76 win against the Pacers on Saturday afternoon at Nerney Field House. The victory is the Cavaliers' 30th consecutive at home against a conference opponent and their 23rd in a row at home overall.

The Cavaliers owned an eight-point advantage, 41-33, at halftime and led by only three points, 57-54, with 12:50 remaining. Yet, an 11-2 run over the next three minutes established a comfortable 12-point lead, 68-56, at the 9:38 mark.

Senior forward Dom Farrello tallied a career-high 33 points in the victory, shooting 10-for-17 overall and a perfect 13-for-13 from the free throw line. Farrello narrowly missed his seventh career double-double with nine rebounds, and also mixing in four steals and three assists.

Sophomore point guard Cory Lemons scored 18 points, knocking down 8-of-10 field goal attempts. Junior guard John Boyd notched 11 points and dished out four assists. Farrello scored 21 of his 33 points after halftime.
