GOSHEN, Ind. - Goshen fell to Marian University 93-70 on Saturday in Goshen, Indiana. The Leafs now play four nonconference games and an exhibition game before getting back to league play on January 4.

GC struggled with turnovers and fouls in the first half, and despite a late push with three-point shots from DJ Bryant and Judah Simfukwe, the Knights, coached by legendary coach Bob Knight's son Pat Knight, ended the half ahead 52-39. Marian made 22 of their 28 first-half field goals - an incredible 79%.

While Marian's offense settled down in the second half, so did Goshen's. The Knights went from shooting 79% in the first to 50% in the second and the Maple Leafs went from 47% in the first to 39% in the second. Goshen made seven of their 32 three-point attempts in the game for just 22%, but were only outrebounded by one.
