The Knights continued to add to their lead in the second half, moving ahead by as much as 31 points when Lawrence Young, who had 13 on the evening, hit a three with 4:39 remaining.

Liander led all scorers with 19 points in 26 minutes on eight of ten from the field. He also had a team high nine rebounds while Lans added 10 for QC, who conclude their regular season at Dowling on Saturday afternoon.
