Jersey City, NJ - The men led from start to finish in a CACC contest to keep their playoff hopes alive in a home game at Felician University. Felician hosted the game due to a scheduling conflict. Alliance earned the victory with a final of 90-78. The largest lead of the night was 23 points with 3:31 left in the first half. 

Isayas Aris (Chicago, IL) scored 22 points while going 6-6 from the charity stripe. He also pulled down 8 rebounds, the most of the night. Adrian Amaro (Haverstraw, NY) came off the bench with 19 points making four three pointers.Jayden Dawson (Teaneck, NJ), Jordan Rodriguez (Orlando, FL), Joel Bailey (Old Harbour, Jamaica) all scored double digits to aid in coming out on top.

Alliance is in contention for the 4th seed in the CACC postseason with Post University. Post is 9-8 in conference play, while Alliance is one game back at 8-9. A Post win clinches the 4th spot in the North for the Eagles (regardless of what Alliance does on Saturday). Alliance needs a win over Dominican on Saturday, and a Post loss vs. Felician to clinch the 4th seed. In this scenario, both teams would be 9-9, and Alliance would own the tiebreaker over the Eagles via its win over Caldwell (Post was swept by Caldwell).
