LOCK HAVEN, Pa. – Matt Cerruti (Huntingdon Valley, Pa./Archbishop Wood) of the Lock Haven University men's basketball team earned a Co-Player of the Week for the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Eastern Division after his stellar play this week.
 
Cerruti was sensational once again in two huge Bald Eagle victories, which clinched a playoff berth for the Haven. On Wednesday, Cerruti recorded another double-double in the win over Mansfield on 16 points and 11 rebounds. Trailing by two with 11 seconds to go, Cerruti got the assist on the game-tying bucket. Then on a missed free throw, Cerruti collected a pass and knocked home a buzzer beating three-pointer for the win. Cerruti would finish with three assists and two steals on the night.
 
In the playoff-clinching win over Bloomsburg, Cerruti was on fire once again for the Haven as he poured in 30 points in the 78-75 win. Cerruti would finish 10-19 from the field including 3-6 from beyond the arc and a perfect 7-7 from the free throw line. During a critical Lock Haven run in the second half, Cerruti would score 24 of his 30 points. With six seconds to go in the game Cerruti would lock down Bloomsburg and force a game winning turnover. Cerruti also added eight rebounds, seven assists and two steals.
 
Cerruti and the Bald Eagles look to continue their form on Wednesday, February 13 when they host East Stroudsburg at 7:30 p.m.
