Jasmen Clarke (Temple, Pa. / Oley Valley) poured on a season-high 17 points, shooting 5 for 6 from three-point range, to give West Chester a boost over Seton Hill 70-48 inside Hollinger Field House Sunday afternoon.
The Golden Rams (8-4, 5-3 PSAC) jumped out to a 10-point lead to end the first period and would never look back by their defensive pressure, forcing the Griffins into 21 turnovers for the game.

Seton Hills' (7-7, 3-5 PSAC) bench outscored West Chester's 27-17, but was not enough as the team would go 19 for 65 for the whole game.
