MADISON, N.J. (January 15, 2011) - Junior Asmar Capers (Bridgewater, N.J./Bridgewater-Raritan) fell four points shy of tying a 24-year old school record for points in a game as the Rangers cruised to a 90-74 victory over Catholic this afternoon.

Terrell Brown (Camden, N.J.,/Woodrow Wilson) and Mike Mayes (Linden, N.J/St. Mary's) were the only other two other Rangers in double figures. For the second consecutive night Brown registered a double-double, scoring 14 points and hauling in 14 rebounds. Mayes was lights out, tallying 14 points while going 7-for-8 from the floor including a 2-for-3 from beyond the arc.

The night and better yet, the secon half belonged to Capers. The junior would get 29 of his 41 in the final 20 minutes of play. Catholic (11-5/2-3 Landmark) looked to have the Landmark Conference's leading scorer in check holding him to only 12 points in the first. He would hit three three-pointers in each half and helped ice the game for the Rangers down the stretch, finishing 13-of-17 from the charity stripe. Earlier this season Capers became Drew's first 30-point scorer in a decade, today he became the first Ranger to drop 40 since Hall of Famer Dan Pierce tied the school record nearly 15 years ago to the day, scoring 45 against Delaware Valley.

Drew (6-9, 2-3 Landmark) set the tone early and got off to a quick 5-0 start courtesy of a Brown steal and a long ball from Capers. At the 14:55 mark the Rangers had built their largest lead of the half with a eight point advantage thanks to a Mayes three. The Cardinals would get within two of the Ranger lead but Drew was able to get the last thee baskets of the half, capped by a steal by Brown who found a slashing Lucas Levenson (Margate City, N.J./Atlantic City) for the fast-break layup.

Drew extended its lead into double digits in the second half and never looked back. The Rangers didn't trail for the entire 40 minutes and got the largest lead up to 19 late in the game. Since entering the Landmark Conference in 2007, the Cardinals have taken the last four matchups with Drew's only win coming in the 2007-08 season.

Next weekend the Rangers will hit the road as they travel to Susquehanna on Friday and Juniata on Saturday. Tip-off is set for 5:30 PM and 2:00 PM respectively.
