NEW YORK -- George Beamon scored 24 points and grabbed seven rebounds to lead Manhattan to a 72-53 rout over Siena on Saturday night.

Manhattan's largest lead in the first half was seven points, taking a 28-27 lead into halftime. But the Jaspers surged in the second half, claiming a 19-point with 6:09 left on Liam McCabe-Moran's 3-pointer.

A couple of minutes later, Manhattan took a 69-45 lead -- its largest of the game -- on a 3-pointer by Donovan Kates to help the Jaspers cruise to the victory.
