Colonials Fall To Richmond, 75-67
Feb. 28, 2004
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Mike Skrocki's 24 points led Richmond to a 75-67 upset of George Washington Saturday afternoon, breaking a 14-game home win streak for the Colonials.
The Spiders scored 15 unanswered points midway through the second half to take a 59-67 lead, holding George Washington scoreless for five minutes. Dunks by Gaston Moliva and Reggie Brown and three jumpers by Skrocki paced Richmond during the stretch.
Moliva came off the bench to add 13 points and eight rebounds for Richmond, while Tony Dobbins scored 11 points and pulled down 6 rebounds.
Mike Hall led George Washington (16-9, 10-4 Atlantic 10), with 15 points and 8 rebounds. Freshman J.R. Pinnock came off the bench to contribute 14 points, 6 rebounds, 2 blocked shots, and 2 steals.
The Colonials had four players in double figures for the game, but also had trouble finding their range, shooting just 2-for-20 from the 3-point line.
GW (16-9, 10-4) next travels to Cincinnati to play Xavier (17-10, 8-6) Wednesday at 7:30 pm.
