WASHINGTON - A full team effort was required Thursday evening as the Gallaudet University men's basketball team edged past Penn St.-Abington, 76-66, to pick-up their ninth win of the season and remain undefeated in North Eastern Athletic Conference (NEAC) competition.

The Bison (9-3, 7-0 NEAC) appeared to be in trouble mid-way through the second half. The Nittany Lions (4-7, 3-3 NEAC) tied the game 46-46 with 11:41 left in regulation, after the Bison had led by as many as 11 in the first half. However, the Bison stampeded back with baskets from six different players to go on a 20-7 run and take a 13-point lead with 4:29 left.

Although it seemed like the 13-point deficit would be too much for Penn St.-Abington to overcome, the Nittany Lions roared back once again to cut the Bison lead to four points, 68-64, with 1:18 left on the clock.
