ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) Jordan Swopshire had 16 points, with four 3-pointers, and nine rebounds to help Colgate beat Navy 69-64 on Sunday.
Swopshire and Francisco Amiel made 3-pointers on back-to-back possessions and Amiel capped the 8-0 run with two free throws to give Colgate a 55-54 lead - its first since 34-33.
Hasan Abdullah hit a deep 3-pointer at 55.9 to pull Navy within 66-64, but Swopshire was left open after a high screen and sank a 3. Navy's Shawn Anderson missed a 3 and Colgate ran out the clock.
