SUNY Orange's offensive firepower on full display as Broncos drop NJCAA Region XV game to Colts

The Broncos' men's basketball team lost an NJCAA Region 15 game on Thursday evening, falling to the Colts of SUNY Orange by a score of 124-72. The contest took place at the Alumni Gymnasium in the Bronx. With the defeat, Bronx dipped to a mark of 0-14 on the 2025-2026 campaign, while the visitors improved to 13-1.

Despite the loss for the Broncos, newcomer Bryan Teixeira connected on three of his five attempts from the floor, and all seven of his free throw opportunities, to finish with a team-high 13 points. Veteran Timothaeus Graham drained a pair of triples, finishing with 10 points and three rebounds, and Jacob Ortiz and Aden Lugo finalized this evening's with nine points apiece. Finally, Said Martin's 12 rebounds led all players.

In the victory for the balanced Colts of SUNY Orange, Anthony Pacciarelli connected on 14 of his 20 attempts from the floor to finish with a game-high 34 points. He also collected five rebounds and swiped a pair of steals. Darren McFarlane netted 17 points, led all players with four steals, snatched three rebounds, and compiled a pair of assists, and RJ Little finalized his evening with 16 points, a team-high eight rebounds, and game-highs of seven assists and five blocked shots. Keishawn Morris finished with 15 points, five dimes, and two steals, and Fritz Odige added 10 points, five rebounds, and four assists.

The Colts dominated the Region 15 clash from the opening tip. Leading 11-6 just 2:55 into the game, SUNY Orange rattled off 14 straight points to snatch a commanding 25-6 advantage. During that aforementioned run, Little led the charge for the visitors with eight points. Bronx was able to stay afloat momentarily, as Martin's bucket with 9:49 remaining in the first half pulled the Broncos to within 16 (38-22), but the offensively-potent Colts would finish the half a 22-11 tear to take a 27-point advantage (60-33) into the locker room at halftime.

Alexander Hattel drained a triple 50 seconds into the second half to pull the Broncos to within 24 (60-36), but the Colts continued to push the basketball, creating a plethora of fast-break scoring opportunities. SUNY Orange scored 22 fast-break points (the Colts scored 32 in the first half) and converted five dunks in the final session, gradually building its lead and going up by as many as 54 at one point (117-63) before going on to win the contest by a count of 124-72.

The Colts connected on a sensational 60.7 percent of their attempts from the floor (51-84), while also making the most of their opportunities at the stripe, earning a conversion rate of 78.9 percent (15-19). On the flip side, Bronx drained just 25 of its 65 shot attempts (38.5 percent), while earning a conversion rate of 71.4 percent from the free throw line (15-21).
