Brasky helps King's College get big upset

By Brian Hillabush

 Batavia graduate Adam Brasky and his King's College basketball team improved to 2-0 this past week with a huge upset victory.

King's shocked two-time defending MAC Commonwealth Conference champion Widener 80-67 in the championship game of the Ramada Inn Classic on Sunday.

Brasky had a key 3-pointer in the contest and finished the game with seven points, according to a story on D3hoops.com.

In the first half the teams went back and forth as the teams were tied 26-26 with 6:14 remaining on the clock. King’s would use back-to-back three-pointers by Mike Wagner to build a 32-26 advantage with 3:44 left. After Widener countered with a three-pointer by B.J. Smith, Adam Brasky answered for King’s with a trey of his own to give the Monarchs with a 35-29 advantage with 3:03 left.

Widener was ranked seventh in the Division III small school poll and 23rd in the nation.
