(Valhalla, NY) - Not even 48 hours after their most devastating loss of the 2018-19 season, the Westchester Community College Men's Basketball team found their rhythm at just the right moment on Saturday, and in doing so, may have found the key to get their season back on track. It was not easy, but if the final 10 minutes of the Vikings' 77-56 win over Rowan College at Burlington County are a sign of things to come, the recent skid for WCC is over, and there are a lot of big games coming up.

Four Vikings scored in double-figures, and sophomore Miles Haughton (Mamaroneck, NY/Mamaroneck HS) enjoyed an incredible all-around game as Westchester opened up a big lead early, just to almost lose it, and then play 10 of their best minutes of the year to break things open en route to their 12th win. Haughton led all scorers with 23 points. He added seven rebounds, four assists, four steals, and two blocked shots. And, he made a single play to change the Vikings fortunes, and literally steal the win.

After Westchester took a 16-point lead late in the first half, and led by 14 points at halftime, the Vikings held a 52-36 lead with 14:13 remaining in the game. From there, RCBC (13-9) made the most improbable of runs, outscoring WCC 15-0 over a 3:30 span to make it a 52-51 game with 10:46 to play. After a Viking turnover, RCBC called a time-out to set up what would have been a go-ahead play.

Enter Haughton. The speedy sophomore fought through a screen and intercepted a Baron pass, sprinting the length of the floor for a lay-up and a 54-51 lead with 9:51 to play. From there, Westchester went on a 16-2 run to take a 68-53 lead with 6:45 to play ... and the rout was on. Overall, Westchester scored 25 of the game's final 29 points during the final 9:51.

Sophomore Monte Lambert (Brooklyn, NY/James Madison HS) had 14 points and four rebounds, sophomore Joe Zayer (West Nyack, NY/Clarkstown South HS) added 11 points, six assists, and four steals, and freshman Fabian Johnson (Suffern, NY/Suffern HS) enjoyed a terrific game with 10 points and five rebounds.

The Vikings also received another rugged effort from freshman Robert Pope (Bronx, NY/Lehman HS) who grabbed a game-high 14 rebounds, and added two blocked shots.

Overall, the Vikings shot 42%, compared to RCBC's 31%, and out-rebounded the Barons 48-40.

WCC returns to action on Thursday, Jan. 31 when the Vikings travel to Monroe-Bronx College for a 7:00 p.m. tip-off. The Vikings return home on Thursday, Feb. 7 for a 7:00 p.m. tip-off with Orange Community College.
