Raptors Win Tournament Title in Northern Vermont

The Bard College men's basketball team defeated Northern Vermont University–Johnson 78–64 in the championship game of the Northern Vermont Tip-Off Classic on the afternoon of Sunday, November 7. A late 11–5 run, keyed by eight points from junior Elliot Harris, pushed a four-point Bard lead to 10, and the NVU-Johnson Beavers didn't get closer than six the rest of the way. “The team showed a lot of resiliency today,” Bard coach Michael Lenahan said. “Our shots weren't falling in the first half, and our defense kept us in it. We kept fighting and were eventually able to pull away for the win.”
