WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. - With the Lycoming College men’s basketball team heading to Albright College to open its run in the 2013 Commonwealth Conference playoffs on Wednesday night, Feb. 20, it may seem a little bit like deja vu for the Warriors and that’s a good thing. After all, in 2012, the team also entered the playoffs as the No. 3 seed when it went to Widener, who, like Albright, it had never beaten in the postseason, and pulled off a 79-77 overtime win.

The Warriors (16-9 overall) have grown accustomed to close games, as their last six games have been decided by 10 points or less, including a three-point loss to Albright on Feb. 20.

The Lions (20-5 overall) reached 20 wins with a 71-61 win over Elizabethtown on Saturday, Feb. 23. Senior Dave Singleton leads the team, as he posted 19 points, 13 rebounds and 12 assists in the win over Lycoming.
