DANBURY, Conn. - Ryan Alkins (Queens, N.Y.) scored a game-high 18 points and led a group of three Western Connecticut State University reserves to score in double figures as the Wolves captured the opener of the Wolves Holiday Touranment over City College of New York, 94-59.

Alkins connected on 8-of-9 attempts from the field, grabbed two rebounds and collected a pair of steals as the Wolves improved to 9-0 on the season.  Jaeden Carr (Ossining, N.Y.) added 12 points while Jaysean Morgan (Poughkeepsie, N.Y.) added 10 points for the winners.

Sophomore forward James Rhodes (Tarrytown, N.Y.) pulled down a game-high eight rebounds for WestConn.

Marcus Heron yanked in six boards to lead CCNY.

The Wolves, which led from the get-go, led by as many as 35 points, took a 14-point advantage, 39-25, into intermission when Alkins banked in a lay up with 29 second remaining before the break.

Sakhi capped off a 13-3 run in the opening 3:36 of the second stanza to bring the Beavers within four points, 42-38.

WestConn erupted from there, scoring 14 of the games next 18 points to thwart any idea of a visitors comeback.
