Behind Hamilton, UB Bulls pull away late in victory over Miami Ohio

It looks like sophomore Lamonte Bearden may not have to rush back into the lineup.

With the sophomore guard and team leading scorer sidelined for a second consecutive game with a foot injury, the Buffalo men’s basketball team was forced to find a scoring replacement for him.

Last game, it was senior guard Jarryn Skeete who stepped up. On Tuesday, it was junior wing Blake Hamilton.

Behind a career game by Hamilton and an all-around excellent rebounding effort, the Bulls (10-8, 3-2 Mid-American Conference) picked up their second consecutive conference victory with a 77-60 victory over Miami Ohio (6-12, 0-5) in Oxford, Ohio Tuesday night.
