History <\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n Bronx, N.Y. \u2013 Holy Cross head coach Dave Paulsen served for two years on the Fordham staff from 2021-23. Today his Crusaders made his return to historic Rose Hill Gym a successful one, coming from behind to defeat the Rams, 70-69, thanks to a pair of free throws with 2.7 seconds remaining.
\n\u00a0
\nWith the loss, Fordham falls to 6-4 while Holy Cross improves to 4-6.
\n\u00a0
\nSenior guard Christian Henry<\/a> led the Rams with 18 points while dishing out four assists, while junior forward Rikus Schulte<\/a> added a double-double with 16 points and ten rebounds, and grad student guard Dejour Reaves<\/a> finished with 12 points and five assists.
\n\u00a0
\nHow it Happened
\n\u2022 The Rams led by ten, 68-58, with 3:17 on the clock when a DeAndre Williams layup started a 10-0 Holy Cross run to knot the game at 68, capped by a Boston three with 47 seconds remaining.
\n\u00a0
\n\u2022 Schulte grabbed an offensive rebound with 14 ticks on the clock and was fouled but made only one of two free throws.
\n\u00a0
\n\u2022 Holy Cross then got an offensive rebound from J Nugent with 2.7 seconds left and he was fouled.
\n\u00a0
\n\u2022 Nugent’s first free throw bounced all around the rim before going and his second was nothing but net.
\n\u00a0
\n\u2022 The Rams had one last chance but a 40-footer from Reaves bounced off the backboard as time expired.
\n\u00a0
\n\u2022 Fordham led by eleven at the break, 38-27, and opened the second half with a 14-9 spurt to take its biggest lead of the day, 52-36, on a Reaves jumper with 13:16 left.
