FAIRFAX, Va. (AP) Darius Maddox's 24 points helped George Mason Patriots defeat Rhode Island Rams 82-67 on Saturday night.

Justin Begg shot 4 for 6, including 3 for 4 from beyond the arc to finish with 12 points. It was the ninth straight win for the Patriots.
David Fuchs finished with 17 points, eight rebounds and two steals for the Rams (15-8, 4-7). Rhode Island also got 10 points, five assists and two blocks from Sebastian Thomas. Javonte Brown had nine points.
George Mason took the lead with 19:00 left in the first half and did not give it up. The score was 46-40 at halftime, with Maddox racking up 18 points. George Mason extended its lead to 53-41 during the second half, fueled by a 7-0 scoring run. Haynes scored a team-high 12 points in the second half as their team closed out the win.
