With about five minutes remaining in the first half, Navy forward George Kiernan got tangled up with a Holy Cross player and fell hard to the floor.
Kiernan laid on the court for a few moments before slowly getting up while rubbing his left shoulder. The 6-foot-7 sophomore left the game and headed to the locker room for treatment.
Kiernan had the shoulder wrapped when he returned to the floor. He reentered the game a few minutes later and threw down an emphatic dunk to close out the first half, reassuring the Navy coaching staff that he was OK.
