Siena vs. Manhattan

The Saints have had some high flying plays with Edwin Ubiles and Alex Franklin both making big slam dunks.

Ubiles has six and Franklin has seven as Siena leads 13-12 with 11:15 to go in the first half.

Siena leads 25-18 with 3:09 to go, but it's getting interesting as Edwin Ubiles and Darryl Crawford almost came to blows behind a Siena fast break.

Siena coach Fran McCaffery came all the way out, nearly to halfcourt to restrain his leading scorer.

Ubiles went to the bench with his second foul and hasn't returned.

Halftime here with Siena leading 32-23. Alex Franklin has 16 for Siena and Devon Ausin has 13 for Manhattan.

There's 15:17 to go in the game and Siena leads 40-32. The Jaspers have scored nine of the game's last 11 points. Alex Franklin has 21 to lead all scorers.

3:42 to go and Siena is up 55-47. Kenny Hasbrouck left the game and went back to the locker room for three minutes when he went down awkwardly on his arm.

McCaffery just took his frustration on a Saints turnover, which they've done far more than accustomed tonight, on the scorers table.

This should be a good ending and a nail-biter if you're a Saints fan.

Siena wins 66-58. Franklin scores a game-high 26 points and nine rebounds, while Ronald Moore had 11 points and 10 assists.

The Saints will get Loyola for the third time this year tomorrow at 6 p.m.
