Box Score

FARMINGTON, Maine – University of Maine at Farmington guard Terion Moss reached the 1,000-point mark for his collegiate career, and the Beavers picked up an all-important North Atlantic Conference East Division victory, in a 105-80 thrashing of the University of Maine at Presque Isle, Sunday afternoon at Dearborn Gym.

The Beavers improved to 9-5 overall with the triumph, 5-2 in the NAC East Division. UMaine-Presque Isle slipped to 8-9, 0-3 NAC East.

Moss netted 30 points on 12-of-22 shooting from the floor – his fifth game this season with 30-or-more points – giving him exactly 842 points over his two-plus seasons at UMaine-Farmington. Coupled with the 158 points scored during his freshman campaign at the University of Maine, Moss finished the game with exactly 1,000 career points as a collegian.

Zach Brown tallied 19 points with four steals, while Dylan Griffin rounded out the starters in double digits with 10 points and 10 rebounds for his first career double-double. He also dished out a team-high five assists.

Nathan Poulin came off the bench to add 15 points in the win, including a career-best five three-pointers.

Griffin Guerrette paced UMaine-Presque Isle with 24 points, leading a quartet of Owls posting double-digit scoring totals. Dany Harris tallied 19 points, while Kj Minter and Gilbert Jean Mendez recorded 14 and 12 points respectively.

The Beavers began putting the Owls away midway through the first half when they outscored the UMPI, 13-5, over a three-minute span. The surge ended with back-to-back treys by Nathan Poulin, giving UMaine-Farmington a 30-18 lead with 10:53 remaining in the opening frame. UMF held a double-digit lead the rest of the half, and went into the intermission with a 49-37 advantage.

UMaine-Farmington carried that momentum into the second half, and UMaine-Presque Isle was never about to mount a serious challenge to the Beavers' lead.

The Beavers shot 56.2 percent (41-of-73) from the floor on Sunday versus UMPI, marking the second straight game UMF has fired at a .500-or-better clip.

UMaine-Farmington will head to Lyndon, Vermont, on Monday, Jan. 31, to face Northern Vermont University-Lyndon in a NAC East Division matchup. Tip-off is scheduled for 5:30 p.m.
