PSU DuBois Advances to PSUAC Championship

Friday evening Penn State DuBois traveled to Mont Alto where the PSUAC Conference tournament is being held to face there Final Four matchup against Penn State Brandywine. Brandywine started off strong knocking down some early three's and pushing the ball out in transition which led to easy layups. When DuBois settled themselves down they fought their way back into the game utilizing their inside game and playing a tenacious man to man defense. Offensive rebounding was a key component to the win. DuBois out rebounded the Brandywine team 53 to 26 total and 23 to 7 just on the offensive side of the ball. These offensive boards gave DuBois an insurmountable advantage in the game. DuBois came out of this hard fought matchup with a 79-72 point victory.

Chris Dickison played his best game of his career and it was needed. Chris played like an absolute animal scoring 35 points and brought down 15 rebounds. Jovan Brown also put up monster numbers scoring 11 points and bringing down 13 rebounds of his own. Kai Ahmad chipped in 10 points, and Woody Mitchell brought down 10 more rebounds. DuBois now looks to face Penn State Wilkes Barre in the Championship Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Wilkes Barre took out the number one seed PSU Beaver earlier this afternoon to advance to the Championship game. DuBois will now not only be playing for the PSUAC title but also a bid into the USCAA National Tournament.
