RUTHERFORD, N.J. – Felician College junior Jason James (Charlotte, NC/Millbrook [NY]) scored seven of his career-high 19 points in overtime, leading the Golden Falcons to an 80-76 Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference men’s basketball victory over visiting Caldwell College before 297 fans Thursday night at Job Gymnasium.

James’s fifth three-point field goal of the game gave Felician (10-11, 8-6) the lead it would never relinquish in the extra session, 71-69 with 3:28 remaining. His four free throws in the final minute were part of a stretch of seven of 10 made by the Golden Falcons to help seal the victory. The overtime period was forced by a 23-foot three-pointer by Felician’s Jason Romer (New York, NY/Wadleigh) with 31 seconds left in regulation, tying the game at 64-64. Both teams missed on chances to win the game in the closing seconds.

RUTHERFORD, N.J. – Felician College saw a 10-point lead with 53 seconds remaining whittled down to one point before holding on for a 92-89 Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference men’s basketball victory over visiting Post University on Tuesday night at Job Gymnasium.

After a James Harper (Eatontown, NJ/Long Branch) free throw gave Felician (9-11, 7-6) a 90-80 advantage with 0:53 on the clock, the Golden Falcons missed six consecutive free throws, and in between turned the ball over on a bad pass. Post was stopped the first time it got the ball back, but the next three times Felician failed to score, Arthur Robertson (Far Rockaway, NY/Beach Challen) nailed three-point field goals, the last time bringing the eagles to within 90-89 with seven seconds remaining. Felician’s Sydir Mitchell (Paterson, NJ/Paterson) was fouled with just over four ticks on the clock and made both shots, and teammate James Jones (West Haven, CT/West Haven) was able to get a hand in the face of a long Gary Schick (Bloomfield, CT/Bloomfield) three-point attempt, which missed wide at the buzzer.
