Bethune-Cookman's men's basketball team beats Coppin State, 58-53

BALTIMORE, Maryland -- Delino Dear had 14 points and a career-high 13 rebounds as Bethune-Cookman's men's basketball team downed Coppin State 58-53 in a Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference game Saturday.

“We needed this win," Wildcats coach Gravelle Craig said. "You don't want to get in a hole. We had close games against The Citadel and Ball State, so it was good to see us pull out one like this”.

B-CU (5-13, 1-3 MEAC) earned its first road win of the season in nine tries.

Quintin Brewer and Brandon Stewart each scored 13 as the Wildcats rallied from a 41-33 deficit to take a 50-49 lead on a Dear jumper with 3:58 to play.

“I've been telling myself to be aggressive and take my time in the post," Dear said.
