The Cougars had a great season, but fall short in a tough playoff, losing 61-48 to Seton Hall Prep. on Saturday.


NJ.com reports:


Seton Hall received 12 points each from Hofstra-bound guard Dallas Anglin and senior forward Spencer Mosley and junior forward Tom Lacey added 11 second-half points as Seton Hall won for the 13th time in its last 14 games under first-year head coach Kevin Williams.
"Coming into this game, our coaches said we have to play how they play, and play with the intensity that they were going to bring," Anglin said. "This is their Tournament of Champions, and we knew they were going to come hard at us and I'm just happy for the win."
Seton Hall Prep led at the half, 32-26, and went on a 10-3 run, keyed by four points each from Weisz and Mosley, to take a 42-29 lead with 2:47 left in the third quarter en route to a 45-35 lead heading into the fourth. Columbia cut the lead to eight, 47-39, after a Maxim Michel basket with 6:10 left in the fourth quarter, but would come no closer.
Michel led Columbia with 12 points, freshman Michael Runcie added 10 and Robert Gordon chipped in with nine, including six in the first quarter, for Columbia, which dropped only its second game in its last 11.
