BULLDOGS EARN FIRST VICTORY

The Berkeley College Bulldogs defeated the Penn State Brandywine Lions in the consolation game of the Heritage's Dairy Stores Classic at Rowan University by a score of 55 to 44 to earn their first win of the season. The win improves the Bulldogs record to 1-8 while Penn State Brandywine drops to 2-7.

The Bulldogs were led by senior guard Richard Webb who led all scorers with 15 points. Webb was named to the All-Tournament team following the game. Forward Donovan Black, leading scorer for the Bulldogs this season, followed with 14 points and 8 of 10 shooting from the free throw line as the Bulldogs shot 70% from the line for the game, making 21 of their 30 free throw attempts.

The Bulldogs led 31 to 22 at halftime and despite repeated runs by the Lions, the Bulldogs managed to hold the lead for the entire second half.

The Bulldogs don't play again until Saturday, January 3, when they travel to West Point to take on Division I Army's junior varsity squad.
