Stetson falls short in Boca Raton as three Hatters record double-digit points

Boca Raton, Fla. -- The Stetson University men's basketball team fell 83-73 to Florida Atlantic University Wednesday night at the FAU Arena. 
 
The Hatters (2-4) got out to a faster start in the first half against the Owls (4-4) as Stetson and FAU played a back-and-forth game for the first 10 minutes of action. After a layup from Mahamadou Diawara at the 9:37 mark, it was a two-point game as FAU led 19-17. Shortly after, the Owls began a 20-8 run to end the half leading by 14, 39-25.
 
Stetson got out of the gate slowly in the second half as the Owls extended their lead to 17, 46-29, by the 18:37 mark. The Hatters chipped away over the next three minutes and after a Rob Perry 3-pointer, it was an 11-point deficit, 50-39 , with 15:37 left in regulation. By the 9:55 mark, Stetson cut the deficit to 62-55 on a jumper from Perry but that was the closest the Hatters would make it, ultimately falling 83-73. 
 
Three Hatters finished with double-digit points as Diawara and Chase Johnston led all scorers with 18 points each. Perry tallied 15 of his own and Stephan Swenson recorded eight points and dished out six assists. 
 
Five players finished with double-digit points for FAU as Alijah Martin led the Owls with 17 points. 
 
The Stetson University men's basketball team will be back in action on Saturday, Dec. 4 as the Hatters travel to Miami for a non-conference match up with Florida International. Tip-off is slated for 7 p.m. and can be streamed on the Conference USA Network.
