Men's Basketball -- Noel Scores 25 as Roadrunners Topple Visiting Sussex County

So far so good for 6-5 forward Ja'Zere Noel, a former Woodbury High star, in his adjustment to the college basketball game.

For the second game in a row, the first-year player turned in a double-double, scoring 25 points and grabbing 11 rebounds to lead the Roadrunners to a 105-72 win over visiting Sussex County College on Saturday.
 
Also contributing to the win were guard Luciano Lebrano, who netted 14 points, guard Alex Angeles with 15, and guard NaQuan McPherson with 12.  Forward Kenar Gulley also hit twin figures with 11. 
 
The Runners (2-0) raced out to a 16-0 lead and increased the advantage to 27-2 midway through the first half. They led at halftime 50-27 and then outscored the Skylanders 55-45 in the second half. 

RCGC will host a talented Borough of Manhattan team on Monday night in an 8 pm start. Borough of Manhattan is coming off a triumph over defending DIII National champion Brookdale and boasts a 5-0 overall record.
 
"This game will be a real challenge," said RCGC coach Will Wareham. "We will find out where we stand taking on a real high-powered opponent."
