The Greyhounds were 15-11 this past winter with an 8-6 mark in Landmark Conference action as the squad qualified for the postseason for the 19th consecutive year.

Moravian outscored the Rangers, 13-10, in the third quarter to cut the deficit to 45-44 after 30 minutes of action.
Yoegel, who led the Greyhounds with a career-high 20 points in the contest, hit a three-pointer 1:06 into the fourth quarter as the Hounds took a 47-45 lead, and another trey by Yoegel had the Blue and Grey up 54-49 with just over five minutes left in the contest. The Rangers came back to knot the score twice, the final time at 58-58. Moravian would get of three shots in the final seconds with Yoegel hitting a put back lay-up with 1.3 seconds left for the lead. Drew had one final shot but missed as the Hounds escaped with the victory.
