MORGANTOWN - Keyser bounced back from a first round loss to host University with a much needed win over Winchester, Va.’s James Wood last night in Morgantown.
The 66-55 victory was in doubt throughout much of the contest when Keyser fell behind by 14 points after a period of play. The Colonels roared out of the gate to take a 21-7 lead after eight minutes as Keyser couldn’t buy a bucket, and held a nine-point lead at intermission at 32-23.
Keyser was able to hold Wood to just seven points while scoring 18 of its’ own in the third period.
The Golden Tornado took their first lead at the end of the third quarter when Matt Wilmer dished out one of his team-high nine assists to Preston Hartman, who converted two of his 19 points on the night.
Keyser would never trail again, but Wood was able to come within two possessions late at 59-55 after a Matt Dallman three-point field goal.
Jeremy Green led the locals for the second consecutive night with 23 points and seven rebounds on 11 field goals and a freebie.
Hartman totaled his 19 on eight shots, two from behind the arc, and 1-of-2 shooting from the line.
Maverick Nelson had a double-double with 11 points and 10 boards, and Wilmer added eight points to his nine dimes.
Keyser (3-2) will host Northern Garrett on Tuesday.
