Springfield, MA - Felician continued its strong early-season form on Saturday, pulling away from American International for a 78–61 road victory in Springfield. The Golden Falcons controlled the matchup from start to finish, leaning on defensive pressure, consistent interior scoring, and a productive supporting cast to secure their third win of the year.
Felician found its rhythm by attacking the middle of the floor, turning quality looks inside into 34 points in the paint. Their relentlessness on the glass helped create separation as well, as the Falcons collected 11 offensive rebounds and turned them into 15 second-chance points. Whenever AIC tried to build momentum, Felician responded by pushing the pace, adding 10 fast-break points to keep the Yellow Jackets off balance.
On the defensive end, the Falcons dictated the tempo. Their pressure forced AIC into mistakes that Felician quickly converted, resulting in 21 points off turnovers. The bench gave an important boost too, chipping in 17 points and maintaining control even as rotations tightened.
Tristin Harcourt set the tone physically, dominating the boards and finishing with a game-best 16 rebounds. Jeremiah Anderson delivered a steady scoring punch, while Tavian Pullock and Jaden Rogers added efficient production that helped Felician stay in command throughout the afternoon.
