Conley's Career-High Takes Men's Basketball to 4-0

Conley was one of three Raiders in double figures as senior Chris Switzer (Euclid/Stow-Munroe Falls) scored 20 along with 12 points from junior Sam King (Masury/Brookfield).

 

Switzer hit a pair of free throws at the 12:29 mark of the first half to give Mount Union a 20-6 lead to start the contest. 

 

Hiram (1-1) came back closing the gap to four points three times before Switzer had a three-point play on a layup and a free throw to give the Raiders a 44-37 lead at the half.

 

Hiram would continue to rally in the second half and took its first lead of the contest, 58-57 on a Jason Hebeisen jumper with 9:15 remaining.

 

With the score tied at 60, Mount Union would go on a decisive 10-2 run highlighted by Conley scoring six points during the run. 

 

Hiram would get it back to three points, 72-69 in the final 30 seconds before a pair of Switzer free throws put the game away.

 

Chris Roberts scored 18 points to lead Hiram.
