EASTON, Pa. (AP) Matt Klinewski scored 26 points, making all 13 of his free throws, and Lafayette eased past Quinnipiac 79-58 on Saturday to end a six-game skid.

Justin Jaworski scored 19 and E.J. Stephens added 18 for the Leopards (1-6), who made 27 of 29 free throws to the Bobcats 14 makes in the first-ever meeting of the teams.

Jaworski's go-ahead layup and 3-pointer sparked a 13-2 run and Lafayette led 42-32 early in the second half. Klinewski scored six straight and the Leopards were up by 12 with 12:57 left. The Bobcats closed to 56-48 on Andrew Robinson's 3 and a free throw, but Klinewski's layup sparked a late 9-0 run and Lafayette led by double digits the rest of the way.

Quinnipiac led 30-29 at halftime behind seven points apiece from Cameron Young and Chaise Daniels after holding the Leopards to 30.8 percent shooting from the floor.
