Men's Basketball Season Ends in AEC First Round Loss at Neumann

Aston, Pa. — Marywood University was eliminated from the Atlantic East Conference men's basketball playoffs on Tuesday. The fifth-seeded Pacers lost to No. 4 Neumann University 84-66 in the first round. 

The Knights will travel to face top-seeded Marymount University on Thursday.

Joe Macciocco led the Pacers with 16 points. Collin Himmelberg added 15 points. Andrew Quinn added 12 points with six assists. 

Defensively, Shilo Bivins had eight rebounds. 

Neumann received 20 points from Jayson Love. Bryan Etienne and Izaiah Johnson Young-El had 19 and 13 points, respectively.
