Robert Morris takes down Youngstown State in Horizon League tournament

ALTOONA, Pa. -- It should act as no surprise as Robert Morris kicked off the post season picking up where they left off against Youngstown State beating them 77-73 in the first round of the Horizon League Basketball Tournament.

Tuesday night's win marked the eighth of the season and fifth in the Horizon League with three of those wins now coming against the Penguins. It was the first Horizon League Basketball Tournament win in program history while doubling as head coach Andrew Toole's 200th career victory with the Colonials.

Robert Morris never trailed in a game that saw them up by 20 points 6:52 remaining in the game.
