Maybe because the game was taking place on Halloween night, but the Syracuse basketball team got off to a bit of a scary start during their exhibition matchup against the Le Moyne Dolphins on Wednesday.
Uncharacteristic turnovers and sluggish play by the Orange led to Le Moyne jumping out to an early 9-2 lead during the first five minutes of the game. However, Syracuse quickly got it together and outscored the Dolphins 48-28 during the final 15 minutes of the first half.
In the second half, the Orange picked up where left off and eventually came out of the Carrier Dome on Wednesday with an 89-52 win over Le Moyne.
