Keyser, W.Va. – Corey Allision hit two free throws with 19 seconds remaining to push Potomac State's lead to three points and a last second Allegany College heave from mid-court fell short to secure the 72-69 win for the Catamounts Saturday afternoon at Lough Gymnasium.

This neighborly rivalry has a long tradition of tightly contested and hard-fought games and the Saturday edition did not disappoint. There were 17 lead changes and 13 ties throughout the game. Allegany's largest lead came just 40 seconds into the game when an O'Bray Rufus three put the Trojans up 3-0. PSC's largest lead was six points in, 63-57 following a Qualeke Bush three pointer with 8:27 remaining in the second half.

Cortney Walton led four Catamounts in double figures with 15 points on 5-13 field goal shooting, all five field goals from behind the arc. The silky shooter also contributed eight rebounds. Allision (14 pts), Anthony Clendenin (11 pts) and Breland Walton (11 pts) also hit double figures for Potomac State while Jordan Davis dished out a game-high 10 assists.

The Trojans also had four players in double figures led by Jalen Jacox's game-high 21 points. Following Jacox were Rufus (16 pts), E'Mari Johnson (13 pts) and Justin Copman (13 pts).
