Lehigh defeats Wagner in men's basketball home opener

FROM THE EXPRESS TIMES

C.J. McCollum scored 20 points and Gabe Knutson added 13 as Lehigh rebounded from Friday's loss to Penn State with a 73-57 win over Wagner at Stabler Arena.

The Mountain Hawks stretched a five-point halftime lead to double digits with a 6-0 spurt to start the second half and never looked back.

“At times, it was like we were playing five on three," said Wagner head coach Dan Hurley. "They’re a good team that was in the (NCAA) tournament last year.”

Tyler Murray led the Seahawks with 18 points.
