Empire 8-Opening Win

EC defeated Ithaca College, 75-60, in their Empire 8 Conference opener Friday night, snapping a nine-game losing streak in Empire 8-opening games. Elmira led by as many as 22 points in the second half before holding off the Bombers late, hitting 7-of-8 free throws down the stretch to seal the victory. Hayden Harkins ’18 led the Soaring Eagles with 17 points while Neil Randolph ’15 scored 14 points in 14 minutes off the bench.

17 Again for Harkins

Hayden Harkins ’18 followed-up his career-high 17 points against No. 13 Centre College with another 17-point game in EC’s 75-60 win over Ithaca. Harkins shot 5-of-8 from behind the arc against the Bombers and also added two free throws for his 17 points.

Season-High in Threes

Elmira hit 13 three-pointers in their win over Ithaca, knocking down 13-of-31 from behind the arc. The 13 three-pointers are the most made in a single game all season, and the most EC has hit in a game since last year’s season-opener against Morrisville State when the Purple and Gold made 16 three-point baskets.

A Fifth Time

With 13 and 10 made three-pointers against Ithaca College and St. John Fisher College, respectively, EC has now hit at least 10 threepointers in five games this season. The Soaring Eagles are 2-3 when making at least 10 shots from three-point range with wins over Clarkson University and Ithaca College.
