Box Score

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. – Sophomore forward David Campbell's (Boston, Mass.) layup with 25 seconds to go put the American International College men's basketball team ahead for good as it recorded a 62-60 non-conference win over Felician College Saturday night at Henry A. Butova Gymnasium.

The Yellow Jackets improved to 1-2 for the season, while the Golden Falcons fell to 0-3.

The game, which was a close contest the entire way, was tied at 58 after junior forward David Williamson (Bronx, N.Y.) knocked down a jumper with one minute to go before Campbell's basket put AIC ahead for good. Sophomore guard Spencer Braithwaite (Dorchester, Mass.) put the game away with a pair of free throws with just 0.9 seconds on the clock to make it 62-58.

Junior guard Antoine Obery (Roselle, N.J.) knocked down a catch-and-shoot jumper from the top of the key as time expired for the 62-60 final.

Campbell finished the game with a team-best 14 points and eight rebounds, while Braithwaite added 11 points with three assists. Freshman guard Al-Shabazz Jabateh (East Orange, N.J.) added nine points off the bench.
