BOSTON (AP) Jaeden Zackery had 18 points and Quinten Post scored all 12 of his points after halftime and finished with a double-double to help Boston College Eagles pull away for a 95-64 victory over Holy Cross Crusaders on Friday night.
Zackery made 8 of 12 shots with a 3-pointer for Boston College (7-3), adding five rebounds and four assists. Post had 10 rebounds, seven assists and a career-high six steals. Post made 5 of 6 shots after halftime to help the Eagles turn a 33-31 lead into a rout.
