LIU Brooklyn earns NCAA berth with Northeast title

NEW YORK (AP) The feel-good story for Mount Saint Mary's was cut short in the championship game of the Northeast Conference tournament.

C.J. Garner scored 31 points and LIU Brooklyn punched its ticket for the NCAA tournament with a 91-70 win over Mount St. Mary's on Tuesday night - the Blackbirds' third straight conference title.

The fifth-seeded Mountaineers came in riding a nine-game win streak after upsetting top-seeded Robert Morris for a chance to play in the finals. A win for Mount St. Mary's would have topped an impressive turnaround for the team, which started a dismal 2-6 in conference play.
