NEW YORK (AP) Micah Seaborn hit the go-ahead 3-pointer with 1:27 to go and Monmouth rallied to beat Manhattan 62-58 on Friday night to extend the Hawks' school-record winning streak to 11 games.

The Hawks (21-5, 13-2) increased their Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference lead to 3 1/2 games over idle Iona (9-5), winning for the first time on Manhattan's court after five losses, and giving coach King Rice his 100th career win.

Seaborn's 3-pointer capped a 9-0 run to give the Hawks their first lead since the 4:13 mark of the first half. The Jaspers (9-17, 4-11) could only manage a free throw after Monmouth's run, missing three 3-pointers.

Seaborn finished with 10 points, Je'lon Hornbeak 15 and Chris Brady 10 points with nine rebounds.
