The Tompkins Cortland Community College men's basketball team reached a milestone with their 66-49 road win over Cayuga Community College. For the first time since their last Mid-State Athletic Conference championship season of 2013-14, the Panthers have reached double figures in wins. With one regular season game left in Tom Wilke's first season as head coach, the Panthers are now 10-10 overall and 6-7 in the MSAC. Cayuga drops to 3-18 overall and 3-11 in the MSAC.

Saturday's win was the third in the last four games for the Panthers, and in each win, Marven Louissaint (Brooklyn/Erasmus Hall H.S.) posted a double-double. Saturday he scored 14 points and pulled down 10 boards. Michael Sinclair (Brooklyn/Academy for College Prep and Career Exploration) was the leading scorer with 22 points.

Looking ahead

The Panthers close out the regular season Tuesday with a home game against Finger Lakes Community College.
