Belmont Abbey senior guard Tyshawn Good scored 43 points, one shy of the school and career-mark he set just five days ago, as the Abbey men's basketball team outscored King 59-39 in the second half to post a key 110-92 win over the Tornado this evening at the Wheeler Center. Belmont Abbey, winners of four-straight, move its record to 16-6 overall and 9-5 in Conference Carolinas, while King slips to 15-6 overall and 10-5 in Conference Carolinas.

The Crusaders trailed 53-51 at the half as the first 20 minutes featured 12 ties and 11 lead changes. No lead by either team was greater than five points. Good scored 25 of his points in the first half on eight of 14 shooting as the Abbey totaled a 50 percent output for the half, while King shot 55 percent in the opening 20 minutes.

The second half, however, was all Belmont Abbey. The Crusaders stormed out on a 29-10 run as a Jay Council layup at the 12:16 mark made it 77-63. That bucket by Council started a 20-6 Abbey jaunt-punctuated by a thunderous dunk by Terrone Sheffey on a fast break- that pushed the lead to its highest of the game, 25 points at 95-70 with 7:59 to play.

King could only get to as few as 16, which it did twice, but the Abbey's 57 percent shooting in the half was too much for King to handle as the Crusaders notched their fourth-straight victory.

Good, who leads NCAA Division II in scoring average, has totaled 87 points in his last two games. His 43 points tonight are his third game with at least 40 points this season. He led four Crusaders in double figures as he made 14 of 21 shots, including four of eight from three-point range, and 11 of 13 from the line. He also had eight rebounds, five assists and four steals in 38 minutes.

Council added 21 points and ten rebounds to notch a double double and Sheffey finished with 20 on eight of 12 shooting. Darryl Durham registered 13 points on four of six shooting. The Abbey shot 53 percent for the game.

Aaron Wheeler led the Tornado with 19 points and Eddie Piccinini added 14 as King shot 50 percent for the contest.
