BLOOMSBURG, Pa. – Luke Kennevan drilled a trifecta in the closing seconds to cap off an 18-point comeback to secure a 68-67 Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) victory at Bloomsburg, sending the Bald Eagles to the postseason for the seventh straight season.
 
The Bald Eagles outscored Bloomsburg 42-23 in the second half to mount the comeback. They won the rebounding battle 42-37 and generated 19 offensive rebounds that created second and third opportunities throughout the comeback.
 
Lock Haven trailed by as many as 18 points in the first half, staring down a 44-26 deficit at intermission after Bloomsburg shot 59 percent from the field in the opening 20 minutes.
 
Kennevan, a freshman guard who has now delivered two game-winning shots this season, received a pass from Dean Coleman-Newsome in the corner, rose up without hesitation, and drained the go-ahead three with the clock nearly expired. Lock Haven led for the first time all night.
 
Kennevan finished with 13 points on 5-of-12 shooting, including three triples, to go along with five rebounds.
 
Coleman-Newsome was relentless in the final 20 minutes, finishing with 16 points, six rebounds and went 8-of-11 at the line.
 
Blake Deegan posted a 15-point, 13-rebound double-double. He grabbed six offensive boards, including a tip-in at the 2:17 mark that cut the Husky lead to six and provided the momentum Lock Haven needed to make its final push.
 
Dyllon Scott added 14 points and seven rebounds and Keith Warren chipped in 10 points off the bench, including a layup with 14 seconds left that pulled the Bald Eagles within two and set the stage for Kennevan's heroics.
