Box Score GENEVA, N.Y.—Hobart College seniors Richie Bonney and Joe Gibbons reached career milestones, but St. Lawrence University dampened the celebration with a 73-62 Liberty League men's basketball win in Bristol Gym today. The loss snaps the Statesmen's 20-game home court win streak and drops Hobart to 18-6 overall, 12-3 in the conference. The Saints improve to 9-13, 5-8.
 
Bonney paced the Statesmen with 24 points (on 11-of-19 shooting) and eight rebounds. The latter made him just the third Hobart player to record 900 career rebounds (904), joining Joe Corbett '03 (1,249) and Carmen Genovese '70 (967). Gibbons, who played just 21 minutes due to foul trouble, notched just four points, but it raised his 3-year Statesmen career total to 1,001, making him the 26th player to score 1,000 career points at Hobart.
 
Three other Statesmen joined Bonney in double digits. Junior guards Andrew Hoy, Trey Blanding, and Connor Rehbaum contributed 11, 11, and 10 points respectively. Blanding also handed out a game-high eight assists.
 
St. Lawrence first-year guard Kyle Kobis led all scorers with 29 points, making 8-of-15 from the floor with four 3-pointers, and a 9-of-10 effort at the foul line. Junior forward Brady Condlin added 14 points and senior forward Janpeter Brase came off the bench to score 12 points and grab a team-high eight rebounds.
 
SLU shot 51 percent from the floor, overcoming a 34-30 halftime deficit with a blistering 59 percent shooting effort in the second half. The Saints were 7-of-13 from 3-point range and made 22-of-27 free throws. Hobart shot 43 percent from the floor, went 4-of-21 from deep, and got just three trips to the foul line.
 
The Statesmen kept the lead through the first 10 minutes of the second half, but could extend their advantage to more than six, taking a 40-34 lead on a Rehbaum layup at the 15:52 mark.
 
The Saints took their first lead of the second half, 50-49, when Condlin buried a 3 at 8:43. Hobart remained in contention to keep its school record home court winning streak alive as a Hoy 3-pointer at 6:29 put the Statesmen up 58-55, but SLU seized the momentum with 10 straight points to build a 65-58 lead with 74 seconds left. Kobis notched seven points in the decisive swing.
 
A Bonney layup set up by Blanding made it a five-point game at 1:06, but St. Lawrence made all eight of its free throw attempts in the final minute to score the upset.
 
Hobart will wrap up the regular season at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 18, when the Statesmen host Union (9-12, 6-7). St. Lawrence will also play on Tuesday at 8 p.m., visiting Clarkson (13-9, 7-6).
