NEW YORK – J'hared Hall scored a career-high 23 points to lead Loyola (Md.) past Manhattan 82-67 on Friday night.
The Greyhounds (6-8, 2-2 Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference) were led by Hall's 17 first-half points — eclipsing his previous career high of 16 — but still trailed 38-32 at halftime.
Loyola regained the lead on a 7-0 run midway through the second half and extended its lead with a 16-2 run over the final five minutes.
