Golden Bears tripped up at home against Bloomsburg

KUTZTOWN, Pa. -- Despite a career-best performance from senior Josh Samec (Tresckow, Pa./Hazleton), the Kutztown University men's basketball team (5-13, 5-8 PSAC) suffered a defeat to Bloomsburg (1-16, 1-12 PSAC) 86-78 at Keystone Arena Wednesday evening.

Jalen Bryant (Edgewood, Md./John Carroll) (19) and Robert Tucker (Philadelphia, Pa./Paul Robeson) (10) were the other Golden Bears in double figures. Wesley Butler (Reading, Pa./Reading) scored eight points in his return to the lineup while grabbing four boards. Kyree Generett (York, Pa./William Penn), Kyle Whippen (Arlington,Va./Westfield), Chase Whippen (Arlington, Va./Westfield), Ryan Glassmacher (Stewartsville, N.J./Bethlehem Catholic (Pa.)), and Kameron Roberts (Townsend, Del./Middletown) were the other Golden Bears to score.
