ROSEMONT, Pa. – The Penn State Brandywine men's basketball team won for the sixth time in eight United East Conference games, topping Rosemont 61-46 on Saturday afternoon.

Ja'bri White (Townsend, Del./St. Mark's) aided the run by converting a three-point play, while Holland beat the buzzer with a triple to make the count 33-21 through 20 minutes.

White and Bryan Warren (Sicklerville, N.J./Timber Creek) combined for the Lions' first 11 points of the half as the Lions' advantage increased to 16 points just over five minutes in. Brandywine used an 8-2 spurt, aided by another Holland three-pointer and a three-point play from Isaiah Johnson (Levittown, Pa./Conwell-Egan Catholic), opening up its biggest lead of the afternoon at 50-30.
