The SUNY Oneonta men's basketball team got 23 points and 22 points respectively from senior Mikey McElroy (Saratoga Springs/Saratoga Springs) and junior Lawrence Coleman (Croton on the Hudson/Hendrick Hudson) in a road win tonight at SUNY Geneseo.  The Red Dragons shot just under 47 percent en route to a 76-65 SUNYAC victory that raised its overall record to 8-3 and 3-1 in conference play.
 
McElroy hit 9-of-14 from the field tonight while Coleman added a game high 11 rebounds.  Junior Jack Kolosky (Fishkill/Our Lady of Lourdes) came off the bench to score a career best 14 points in just 13 minutes of action.  Kolosky was a perfect 5-for-5 from the floor while also contributing five rebounds.
 
The two squads battled tightly in the opening 20 minutes with multiple lead changes.  The Red Dragons came through the first half holding a slim 39-38 lead.
 
The score remained tight through the first five minutes of the second half before Oneonta started to create some breathing room.  The Red Dragons put together a 14-3 run over the next five minutes to open up a 10-point lead.  McElroy and Kolosky combined for 10 of the 14 points during the spurt.
 
A quick 8-0 run by Geneseo (6-3/0-2 SUNYAC) cut Oneonta's lead back to a pair with eight minutes remaining in the game.
 
Another 12-4 run for Oneonta over the next six minutes gave them enough of a lead to close the door on the Knights.
 
Senior Jack Dignan (Brewster/Brewster) had another solid all-around game tonight with eight points, eight rebounds and 11 assists.
 
The Red Dragons will finish its Rochester road swing tomorrow with a game at Brockport beginning at 4pm.
