Hampton Pirates, Va. (AP) Sophomore Benjamin Stanley came off the bench to score 32 points and Hampton made just enough free throws down the stretch to hold off Saint Peter's 70-67 on Saturday.
Stanley made 9 of 14 shots from the floor, including both of his 3-pointers, and sank 12 of 18 free throws. He added six rebounds, five blocks and three assists. Davion Warren scored 15 for the Pirates (5-8), while Greg Heckstall added 10 points and five assists.
Hampton led 34-27 at halftime, but KC Nedefo's tip-in bucket gave the Peacocks (3-6) a 65-61 lead with 2:09 left in the game. From there the Pirates sank 7 of 9 from the foul line to hold on for the win.
Freshman Daryl Banks III paced Saint Peter's with a career-high 17 points off the bench. Matthew Lee had 10 points and six assists, while Derrick Woods added 10 points and two blocks.
