KNIGHTS FALL TO #3 F.I.T.

The Berkeley Knights gave the F.I.T. Tigers a battle in the first half of their non-conference matchup and trailed by only five points, 34-29, with four minutes remaining in the first half, but costly turnovers proved to be the Knights' undoing as the Tigers found their groove and coasted to a 113-63 victory.

The loss was the Knights' fourth consecutive non-conference loss.

Three Berkeley players finished in double-figures with freshman Phyllip Jordan (New York/Wadleigh) leading the way with 13 points and eight rebounds. Seniors James Dorismond (Bronx/Bread & Roses) and Moyram Espino (Forest Hills/Hillcrest) finished with 12 points and 10 points, respectively.

The Knights resume their conference play with two games next weekend against Vaughn College on Saturday, January 24, and Pratt Institute on Sunday, January 25.
