Quick Stat of the Night - Arguably one of the most accurate three-point shooters in school history, redshirt junior guard Coron Williams has found his stroke from beyond the arc after some early season struggles. Williams, who converted just two his first nine attempts (22.2%) from deep in the first two games of the 2012-13 campaign, enters Monday’s game @ Savannah State having shot 58.8 percent (10-for-17) from long range in RMU’s last four contests. Williams is shooting 46.2 percent (12-for-26) from the three-point line overall on the 2012-13 season, which is tied for eighth in the Northeast Conference. In 78 career games, Williams has shot 42.9 percent (148for-345) from beyond the arc, which ranks fourth all-time at Robert Morris. He also ranks ninth all-time in career three-point field goals.

Head Coach Andrew Toole Third Season - Penn ’03 When it came time for Robert Morris University Director of Athletics Craig Coleman, M.D., to name a new head coach for the men’s basketball program, he didn’t have to look far.

Andrew Toole was introduced as the eighth head coach in the 37-year Division I history at a press conference at the Charles L. Sewall Center May 11, 2010, and the 2012-13 campaign is his third season as head coach of the Colonials. He owns an overall record of 47-28 (.627).

Anyone familiar with the success RMU has had in recent seasons should be familiar with Toole.

Named as former head coach Mike Rice’s top assistant in 2007-08, Toole spent the 2008-09 and 200910 seasons as Associate Head Coach at Robert Morris.

In his first season at the helm in 2010-11, Toole continued RMU’s recent run of success, leading the Colonials to an overall record of 18-14 (.563), including a mark of the 12-6 (.667) in the Northeast Conference. Robert Morris advanced to its third straight NEC Tournament championship game, falling shy of earning its third consecutive title before falling in overtime @ LIU Brooklyn (3/9/11), 85-82.

Despite a roster that featured just one senior for the second straight year, Toole led the Colonials to an overall record of 26-11 (.703) in 2011-12, including a mark of 13-5 (.722) in the NEC that helped Robert Morris earn the No. 3 seed in the 2012 NEC Tournament. RMU advanced to its fourth straight NEC Tournament championship game before suffering a 90-73 setback @ LIU Brooklyn (3/7/12).

The Colonials accepted a bid to the 2012 CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament (CIT) despite falling short of their third NCAA Tournament appearance in the last four years and advanced to the quarterfinals thanks to road victories @ Indiana State and @ Toledo. The win over the Sycamores in the first round of the 2012 CIT marked RMU’s first victory in a national postseason tournament since 1983.

Toole is at the helm of an RMU program that has experienced unprecedented success over the last five years. The Colonials own NEC records for victories over the span of three, four and five years.

Since the beginning of the 2007-08 season when Toole joined the staff through the 2011-12 campaign, RMU posted an overall record of 117-56 (.676), with the 117 victories both a school and NEC record for a five-year span.

While RMU’s overall success is apparent, the program’s accomplishments in the NEC are also clear.

Over the last five years, the Colonials have posted a mark of 71-19 (.789) against league opposition and have finished no lower than third over that span. Overall, RMU has established 132 team or individual records, with 52 of those coming under the watchful eye of Toole.

Robert Morris won outright NEC regular-season titles in 2008 and 2009 and shared the championship in 2010 with Quinnipiac with Toole as a member of the staff.

RMU followed up its success in the regular season by becoming the first team in NEC history in 16 years to win back-to-back NEC Tournament championships by earning a 52-50 win over Quinnipiac in the 2010 NEC Tournament championship game in Hamden, Conn.

In 2008, the Colonials made their first appearance in the National Invitation Tournament (NIT), dropping an 87-81 decision to No. 1 overall seed Syracuse at the Carrier Dome. In both 2009 and 2010, RMU earned automatic berths to the NCAA Tournament thanks to winning their sixth and seventh NEC Tournament championships, respectively.

In the 2009 NCAA Tournament as a No. 15 seed, the Colonials fell to eventual national runner-up Michigan State, 77-62, in the first round at the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome in Minneapolis, Minn.

In the 2010 NCAA Tournament, Robert Morris nearly upset No. 2 seed Villanova in the first round at the Dunkin' Donuts Center in Providence, R.I., before falling, 73-70, in overtime.

Prior to coming to Robert Morris in 2007, Toole spent the 2006-07 season as an assistant at Lafayette College in Easton, Pa. While an assistant with the Leopards, Toole assisted in all facets of the program, from recruiting to player development. He was responsible for helping recruit student-athletes that helped lead Lafayette to the 2010 Patriot League Tournament championship game against Lehigh.

Between 2004 and 2006, Toole spent two years with The Hoop Group in Neptune, N.J. He served as the director of the Eastern Invitational Basketball Clinic, where he handled logistical management for the nation's largest high school exposure camp.

Toole was a four-year starter at the Division I level, playing for Elon University (1998-2000) before transferring to the University of Pennsylvania (2000-03).

Over his four-year career at Elon and Penn, Toole averaged 12.3 points per contest, finishing with 1,341 points in 109 games. He also posted averages of 3.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.2 steals per contest.

Toole, who married the former Brooke Kelly June 3, 2011, resides in the Pittsburgh suburb of Mt. Lebanon, Pa.

What They’re Saying About Andrew Toole Mike Rice, Head Coach, Rutgers University “Coach Toole has had as much to do with the success of the RMU program the last three years as anyone. His tireless commitment to improve the program, whether it was recruiting, player development or game day preparation, was unmatched by any other assistant.

Robert Morris basketball is in great hands.”

Fran O’Hanlon, Head Coach, Lafayette College “Andrew is a smart, dedicated and excellent leader who possesses a tremendous amount of passion for the game. Above all, he is a man of strong character. He possesses all the necessary qualities to be a successful college head coach, and I am very happy for the Robert Morris community to have a person of Andrew’s caliber lead its men’s basketball program.”

Fran Dunphy, Head Coach, Temple University “I certainly want to congratulate Robert Morris University and Andrew Toole as they embark on a new era of Colonial basketball. I’ve known Andy as a player and now a coach and his leadership skills are unquestioned. He has great knowledge of the game and has shown great skill in imparting that knowledge to his players.”

Wrapping Up The NIT Season Tip-Off - Robert Morris finished the 2012 NIT Season Tip-Off with a record of 3-1 (.750) thanks to home victories over Bowling Green (11/19/12) and Cleveland State (11/20/12) ... The Colonials posted a winning record for the first time in 18 regular-season tournaments in the 37-year Division I history of the program ... All-time the Colonials are 16-32 (.333) in regular-season tournaments ... Redshirt senior guard Velton Jones led Robert Morris in the NIT Season Tip-Off in scoring (15.3 ppg), assists (5.5 apg) and free-throw percentage (.882) ... Junior forward Mike McFadden contributed averages of 11.7 points and 6.5 rebounds in the NIT Season Tip-Off while shooting 58.6 percent (17-for-29) from the field and recording a team-high nine steals ... Sophomore forward Lucky Jones posted averages of 10.5 points and 6.5 rebounds in the 2012 NIT Season Tip-Off. Dishing It Out - Velton Jones finished with 22 assists in four games of the 2012 NIT Season Tip-Off and on the 2012-13 campaign owns 31 dimes through six games, an average of 5.2 per contest. Jones became just the eighth player in school history to eclipse 400 career assists earlier this season and enters Monday’s game @ Savannah State with 424 career dimes.

Jones needs 132 assists to eclipse the career record of 555 that is held by former point guard Forest Grant (1980-84) and would need to average 5.3 assists per game over RMU’s final 25 regular-season contests to eclipse the mark.

Velton Jones a Lou Henson Award Candidate - Thanks to one of the best seasons in school history in 2011-12, redshirt senior guard Velton Jones was one of 31 student-athletes named to the CollegeInsider.com 2012-13 Mid-Major Preseason All-America Team as well as a candidate for the Lou Henson Award. Given annually to the top student-athlete from the midmajor ranks, the Lou Henson Award watch features three players from the Northeast Conference. In addition to Jones, LIU Brooklyn’s Julian Boyd and Sacred Heart’s Shane Gibson also made the cut. Jones ranks second among active players in the NEC in assists (424) and fourth in points (1,343).

Free Is For Me - In its only exhibition game of the 2012-13 preseason, the Colonials posted an 81-67 win over Saint Vincent (11/1/12) despite struggling at the free-throw line, converting just 54.5 percent (18-for-33) of their attempts at the charity stripe. It’s been a complete reversal since the beginning of the regular season, as Robert Morris enters Monday’s game @ Savannah State having shot 80.5 percent (107-for-133) at the chalk in its first six games of 2012-13, which ranks second in the Northeast Conference. Leading the way in the early going is redshirt senior guard Velton Jones, who has converted 86 percent (37-for-43) of his chances at the stripe. Meanwhile, junior forward Mike McFadden, who shot just 52.2 percent (48-for-92) at the free-throw line last year, has flourished in 2012-13. Through the first six games of the season, McFadden has converted 15 of his 18 attempts, a success rate of 83.3 percent.

A Run At the Record? Despite missing the first three games of the 2012-13 campaign due to a high ankle sprain, redshirt senior forward Russell Johnson entered his final season of eligibility with a chance to become the program’s all-time leading rebounder. Johnson became the 16th member of the Robert Morris 500-rebound club in 2011-12 thanks to eight boards in a 70-56 victory over in-state rival Saint Francis (Pa.) (2/11/12). He finished second for the Colonials in 2011-12 with 177 rebounds in 31 games, an average of 5.7 per contest. Johnson owns 579 career caroms and is 173 rebounds shy of becoming the program’s all-time leading rebounder. Johnson needs to average 6.9 rebounds in RMU’s remaining 25 regular-season contests to eclipse the mark. Currently, former Colonials Anthony Dickens (1985-90) and Tony Lee (2004-08) share the career record of 751 rebounds.

The Race to 1,000 - In addition to Russell Johnson having an opportunity in his final season of eligibility to make a run at becoming the program’s all-time leading rebounder, the redshirt senior forward is also just 116 points shy of joining the Robert Morris 1,000-point club.

Johnson owns 884 career points and, barring injury, will become just the 12th player in school history to be a member of both the RMU 1,000-point and 500-rebound clubs. While Johnson has a good shot of eclipsing 1,000 career points in 2012-13, Coron Williams also has a shot. The redshirt junior guard enters Monday’s game @ Savannah State with 687 career points and would need to average 12.5 points over the course of RMU’s remaining 25 games to join the exclusive fraternity. If the duo accomplish the feat, they would be the 21st and 22nd members, respectively, of the Robert Morris 1,000-point club in school history.

The defensive pressure that Robert Morris has employed over the last five seasons has allowed the program to post each of its top three totals for largest margin of victory against a Northeast Conference opponent in school history. The Colonials earned a 91-38 victory over Bryant (2/3/11) at the Charles L. Sewall Center to not only establish a new school record in an NEC game but also tie the league mark. The record was originally set when Wagner defeated Sacred Heart, 116-63, on February 22, 2000. In fact, only four games in league annals have been decided by 50 or more points, and RMU owns two of them. Robert Morris posted a 95-45 victory over Fairleigh Dickinson (2/7/08) at the Sewall Center, while Long Island defeated Wagner, 127-77, February 11, 1998, in Brooklyn, N.Y.

Scouting the Tigers - Savannah State owns an overall record of 4-3 (.571) entering Monday’s game against Robert Morris after earning a 39-38 win over Western Illinois (11/24/12) at Tiger Arena. Senior forward Rashad Hassan leads the Tigers in scoring, producing an average of 14.9 points per game while shooting a white hot 61.6 percent (45-for-73) from the field. He tied for team-high honors in the win over Western Illinois with 13 points, converting six of his 12 shots from the field. The leading rebounder for Savannah State through the first seven games of the 2012-13 campaign has been junior forward Jyles Smith, who grabs an average of 6.4 boards per game. He also owns a team-high 22 blocks, an average of 3.1 per contest. Senior guard Preston Blackmon, meanwhile, scores at a 9.6 points per game clip and leads the squad in assists (21).

Savannah State Head Coach - In his eighth season as head coach of Savannah State is Horace Broadnax (Georgetown ’86). The 11th head coach in the history of the Tigers, Broadnax inherited a team that went 0-28 prior to his arrival in 2005, but by 2008-09 he guided Savannah State to its first winning season in over 20 years. In 2011-12, the Tigers reached another milestone, winning their first Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) regular-season championship and its first ever bid to the National Invitation Tournament (NIT).

RMU’s Last Game - Robert Morris concluded play in the 2012 NIT Season Tip-Off, Nov. 20, with a 71-62 victory over Cleveland State in the consolation round at the Charles L. Sewall Center.

RMU led the entire first half and also owned a 39-33 edge with 14:20 to play before CSU posted an 8-1 run to take its only lead of the contest, 41-40, with 12:21 remaining. Anton Grady started the surge with a layup, while Junior Lomomba converted a three-point play. Charlie Lee, who led all scorers in the contest with 20 points, buried a three-pointer to give the Vikings the lead.

Robert Morris weathered the surge by Cleveland State, as junior forward Mike McFadden converted a layup to push the Colonials back in front, 42-41. Redshirt junior guard Velton Jones followed with a layup, and McFadden added a dunk off a feed from Jones to help RMU extend its advantage to 46-41 with just under 10 minutes to go. Grady would help the Vikings close to within 52-50 after a layup at the 5:52 mark of the second half, but Robert Morris used a 9-2 spurt to push its lead to 61-52. Four different Colonials scored during the run, including a threepointer from junior guard Anthony Myers-Pate. The Vikings had one last charge, as two free throws by Lomomba and a three-pointer from Tim Kamczyc helped CSU trim its deficit to 6157 with just two and-a-half minutes left, but Robert Morris sealed the win at the free-throw line, going 10-for-10 at the stripe in the final 2:03 of action. In the first half, RMU jumped out to a 14-6 lead after a layup from junior forward Vaughn Morgan, and twice before intermission the Colonials owned double-digit leads, including 26-16 with 3:39 left before halftime after a three-point play from Jones. Cleveland State, however, closed the half on an 8-2 run to pull to within 28-24 at the break. McFadden and Jones each scored 15 points to pace Robert Morris, with McFadden adding four rebounds and three steals and Jones recording six assists. Sophomore forward Lucky Jones added 13 points, a game-high eight rebounds and three steals for RMU. Leading Scorers: Jones, V. (15), McFadden (15), Jones, L. (13), Williams (9) Leading Rebounders: Jones, L. (8), Johnson (5), McFadden (4), Williams (4) Assists: Jones, V. (6), Johnson (4), Jones, L. (2), Williams (1), Myers-Pate (1)

Block Party - It’s early in the 2012-13 campaign, but it may be safe to say that Robert Morris has never had as natural a shot blocker in school history than junior forward Vaughn Morgan. Through the first six games of the season, Morgan has recorded 14 blocks, an average of 2.3 per contest that is tops in the Northeast Conference. Based on his current average, Morgan will shatter the Robert Morris single-season record for rejections. Former Colonial Rob Robinson (2008-10) finished with 35 blocks during the 2008-09 campaign, breaking a record that had stood for almost 25 years. Morgan, meanwhile, is on pace to finish the regular season with 72 blocks.

Settling In - After a pair of uncharacteristic performances on the defensive end in the first two games of the 2012-13 campaign, RMU is settling in. The Colonials enter Monday’s game @ Savannah State having allowed an average of just 60.3 points per game over their last four contests. Not surprisingly, Robert Morris is 3-1 (.750) in that stretch.

RMU is coming off a 2011-12 campaign in which it set a school record for scoring defense, allowing just 63.5 points per game, which led the Northeast Conference. The Colonials enter Monday’s game against the Tigers again tops in the NEC in scoring defense, allowing 68.2 points per contest.

Rockin The Chalk - No Colonial in school history has shown a penchant for getting to the free-throw line better than redshirt senior guard Velton Jones. In a 71-60 victory over Bowling Green (11/19/12) in the consolation round of the NIT Season Tip-Off, Jones paced Robert Morris with 16 points on the strength of a 9-for-10 performance at the charity stripe. For Jones, RMU’s all-time leader in both free throws (434) and free-throw attempts (603), it marked the 18th time in his career he’s visited the charity stripe at least 10 times in a game. Jones enters Monday’s game @ Savannah State leading the Colonials in both free throws (37) and free-throw attempts (43), a success rate of 86 percent.

Double Your Pleasure - Junior forward Mike McFadden registered his first career double-double against Lehigh (11/12/12) in the opening round of the 2012 NIT Season TipOff, leading the Colonials with 13 points and a career-high 13 rebounds. McFadden is the fourth active player on the Robert Morris roster to post a double-double. The current active leader in double-doubles for RMU is redshirt senior forward Russell Johnson, who enters Monday’s game @ Savannah State with five career double-doubles.

Golden Era - While Robert Morris is in the midst of its golden era in the 37-year history as a Division I program, an area that gets credit for that success is RMU’s ability to convert from beyond the arc. Redshirt junior guard Coron Williams posted a team-high 87 three-pointers in 2011-12, the second highest total in the RMU single-season record book. Former Colonial Scott Shepard (1988-91) owns the single-season mark with 93 during his first year with RMU in 1988-89. In 2011-12, Williams became the third player in the last four years to hit at least 80 three-pointers in a season and is also the eighth different Colonial in the last 11 years to post one of the top 10 single-season marks in three-point field goals. Williams enters Monday’s game @ Savannah State with 148 career three-pointers, which currently ranks ninth all-time at Robert Morris.

The Comeback Kids - Facing a double-digit deficit under head coach Andrew Toole doesn’t seem to be a problem for Robert Morris. In seven of their last 11 road tilts of the 2011-12 season the Colonials fell behind by double digits but came back to win four of them. In a 67-60 win @ Indiana State (3/13/12) in the first round of the 2012 CIT, RMU fell behind by 12 in the first half, 21-9, and faced double-digit deficits seven times in the first eight minutes of the second half before roaring back for the victory. The win @ Indiana State marked the ninth time RMU has climbed out of a double-digit deficit to earn a victory in three seasons under head coach Andrew Toole. Included in that stretch is a 15-point deficit in the second half of an 81-73 overtime win @ Monmouth (1/21/12).

Start Me Up - Redshirt junior guard Coron Williams, the only Colonial to start all 37 games for Robert Morris in 2011-12, is RMU’s active leader for consecutive starting assignments. Williams has started 48 straight games dating back to the 2010-11 season, the longest streak by a Colonial since redshirt senior guard Velton Jones started 70 consecutive games before having it snapped last season.

Did You Know?

Redshirt senior guard Velton Jones became the sixth Colonial in the last eight years to lead the NEC in steals against league foes in 2011-12. Jones averaged 2.39 thefts per contest, recording at least three steals in eight of RMU’s 16 tilts against league opponents. Jones joins former Colonials Tony Lee (2004-08) and Jeremy Chappell (2005-09) to turn the trick. Lee led the NEC against league opposition in steals in 2004-05 (2.1 spg), 2006-07 (2.6 spg) and 2007-08 (2.4 spg), while Chappell accomplished the feat in both 2005-06 (2.2 spg) and 2008-09 (2.6 spg). Jones is the fourth Colonial overall to lead the NEC in steals against league foes, joining former Colonial Gene Nabors (1995-2000).

2012-13 RMU Basketball

10 Spot - Redshirt junior guard Coron Williams recorded his second double-figure scoring game of the 2012-13 campaign in a 71-60 win over Bowling Green (11/19/12) in the consolation round of the NIT Season Tip-Off, finishing with 12 points on 4-for-7 shooting from the field, including a 2-for-4 performance from beyond the arc, and a 2-for-2 showing at the free-throw line. When Williams scores at least 10 points in a game, it’s a good sign for Robert Morris. The Colonials enter Monday’s game @ Savannah state with a record of 24-7 (.774) over the last three years when Williams scores in double figures, the highest win percentage among active players on the RMU roster. Right behind Williams is Lucky Jones, as Robert Morris owns a record of 11-4 (.733) when the sophomore forward reaches double figures.

In The Clutch - You certainly could say that Robert Morris has a flair for the dramatic.

In a 55-53 win @ Sacred Heart (2/23/12), redshirt senior guard Velton Jones buried a three-pointer with 0.1 seconds to play that helped give the Colonials the victory. It marked the second career buzzer beater for Jones, who also turned the trick in the semifinals of the 2011 NEC Tournament in a 64-62 victory @ Quinnipiac (3/6/11).

The Rock - Guard Velton Jones has been a rock for Robert Morris over the last four seasons, as the redshirt senior is in his final season of eligibility in 2012-13 owning the longest active streak for games played. Jones has played in 110 straight contests for RMU dating back to the 2009-10 campaign and owns 104 career starts, far and away the highest mark for a Colonial. Jones is just the fifth player in school history to start at least 100 career games, and he needs 17 starting assignments to break the school record of 120 that is held by former Colonial Jeremy Chappell (2005-09).

Defense Wins Championships - At the heart of the resurgence of the RMU basketball program over the last six seasons has been defense. Thanks to a 71-62 win over Cleveland State (11/20/12) in the NIT Season Tip-Off, Robert Morris owns a record to 92-18 (.836) since the beginning of the 2007-08 campaign when holding its opponent to less than 70 points. In three seasons under head coach Andrew Toole, the Colonials are 41-11 (.788) when turning the trick.

Toole Time - Robert Morris is led by head coach Andrew Toole, who completed his second season as head coach of the Colonials by leading RMU to an overall record of 26-11 in 2011-12. In Toole’s 75 games on the sidelines over the last two seasons, RMU has held its opponents to less than 70 points in 52 contests, an amazing 69.3 percent of the time.

Included in those 50 contests are 23 holding its opponent to less than 60 points, with RMU owning an astounding mark of 22-1 (.957) in those games. RMU’s only loss is a 5853 setback @ Cleveland State (11/29/10), and the Colonials have won 21 straight when turning the trick.

Board Games - Part of following the formula in regard to being successful for Robert Morris over the last six seasons has been the program’s ability to crash the boards. Since the beginning of the 2007-08 campaign, Robert Morris owns a record of 93-17 (.845) when the Colonials are even or better in rebounding in a game, including an 89-15 (.856) mark when outrebounding their opponent. In Andrew Toole’s three seasons as head coach, Robert Morris has posted a record of 37-11 (.771) when outrebounding its opponent, including a mark of 3-2 (.600) in 2012-13.

Four Score and ... In a 71-60 victory over Bowling Green (11/19/12) in the consolation round of the NIT Season Tip-Off, Robert Morris had four players reach double figures in scoring as redshirt senior guard Velton Jones paced the Colonials with 16 points. Joining Jones was junior guards Coron Williams (12) and Anthony Myers-Pate (11) and junior forward Mike McFadden (12). RMU has had four players reach double figures in scoring a total of 24 times in three seasons under head coach Andrew Toole, with the Colonials owning a record of 17-7 (.708) in those contests. Included in that stretch was 13 times in 2011-12, with Robert Morris posting a mark of 9-4 (.692) in those contests.

Long Distance Dialing - Thanks to tying an RMU single-game record for three-pointers with 16 in an 87-68 victory over Monmouth (3/1/12) in the quarterfinals of the 2012 Northeast Conference Tournament, the Colonials eclipsed 200 three-pointers in 2011-12 and finished the season with 240.

It marks the eighth time in the last nine years that Robert Morris has eclipsed 200 three-pointers in a season. The top two sharpshooters from long range for RMU in 2011-12 were redshirt junior guard Coron Williams and redshirt senior guard Velton Jones, who combined for 147 three-pointers. That total is the second highest by an RMU tandem in school history.

2012-13 RMU Basketball

Streaker - Redshirt senior guard Velton Jones owns the longest double-figure scoring streak by a Colonial on the active roster at 19 games. Jones turned the trick in the final six contests of the 2010-11 season and the first 13 games in 2011-12. Over that span, Jones averaged 16.6 points per contest.

The streak stands as the third longest in school history and fell one game shy of allowing Jones to become only the third player in school history to score at least 10 points in 20 consecutive contests. Jones enters Monday’s game @ Savannah State having reached double figures in each of his last five games, averaging 15.2 points per game during that span.

Robert Morris celebrated its 25th season of playing its home games at the Charles L. Sewall Center in 2009-10. The facility was dedicated in 1985 and named for the man who served Robert Morris as president from 1967 until 1989.

The Sewall Center has been the site where the Northeast Conference Tournament champion has been crowned in men’s basketball a total of five times in the last 27 years, with the Colonials winning four of those titles. RMU won the NEC Tournament on its home court in 1989, 1990, 1992 and 2009, while in 1986 No. 2 seed Marist won the championship with a 57-56 win over No. 1 seed Fairleigh Dickinson.

The 2009 NEC Tournament men's basketball championship game held at the Sewall Center featured the first sell-out crowd in school history, with 3,227 fans packed into the arena to watch Robert Morris post a 48-46 win over Mount St. Mary’s that was televised nationally on ESPN2. Former forward Dallas Green (2006-10) hit the game-winning shot with 2.2 seconds to play to help lift the Colonials to their sixth NEC Tournament title. In addition, the Robert Morris women’s basketball team claimed back-to-back NEC Tournament championships at the Sewall Center in 2007 and 2008.

The Need for Three Over the course of the last decade, converting the three-point shot and Robert Morris have become synonymous. Despite having its string of consecutive seasons with at least 200 three-pointers snapped at six by finishing with 197 in 2009-10, the Colonials are still near the top of the Northeast Conference over the last 10 years in three-point field goals made per game. Since the start of the 2001-02 season, the Colonials have averaged 7.05 threepointers per contest, which ranks second behind St. Francis (N.Y.), which has averaged 7.09 three-pointers a game. In 2011-12, redshirt sophomore guard Coron Williams paced Robert Morris by draining 87 three-pointers, the second highest total in the RMU single-season record book.
