Reynolds collects 100th home win

SLIPPERY ROCK — Slippery Rock University men's basketball coach Kevin Reynolds notched his 100th career home win as The Rock edged Gannon 71-67 Saturday afternoon.

Reynolds is now 100-27 at home since taking over the program in 2008.

SRU (13-13, 9-11) is still in fifth place in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference West standings, one game behind Mercyhurst for fourth.

The Rock can clinch a playoff berth Saturday with a California (Pa.) University loss to Clarion. SRU can also sew up a playoff spot with a win in either of its games next week (at Edinboro Wednesday and at Pitt-Johnstown Saturday) or a loss by Cal in either of its games.

Merdic Green led SRU with 16 points.

Karns City graduate and SRU freshman LeeAnn Gibson added seven points and five rebounds off the bench for The Rock (9-16, 6-13).

Senior point guard and PSAC scoring leader Lexi Carpenter continues to be out of the lineup due to injury.
