January 15, 2025 Historic Start Comes to an End with AEC Loss to Saints Gwynedd Valley, Pa. - (1/15/2925) - An unprecedented unbeaten streak came to an end as Gwynedd Mercy University (13-1, 2-1) fell on the short side of tonight's 78-72 Atlantic East Conference (AEC) final with Marymount University (9-6, 3-0). Despite a 34-29 Griffin rebounding advantage, the Saints' first-half shooting - 6-of-13 (.462) from three-point range - was enough to earn the visitors a 34-27 halftime advantage and their 11-of-14 (.786) second-half free throw clip was enough to deny any Red and Gold reprise. Senior guard Aquil Stewart (Philadelphia, Pa.) led Gwynedd Mercy University with 19 points; he was 6-of-11 (.545) from the field with four three-point baskets (4-of-8, .500) and he hit 3-of-5 (.600) from the free throw line. His efforts were aided by the dirty work of senior guard Mike Marable (Philadelphia, Pa.) and sophomore guard Justin Savage (Philadelphia, Pa.); the former recorded 10 points, six rebounds, three assists, two blocks, and a steal, while the latter finished with 13 points, four rebounds, four assists, and a steal.
January 13, 2025 Hot-Handed Harris Headlines Griffins' Big Win over Patriots Gwynedd Valley, Pa. - (1/13/2025) - Gwynedd Mercy University (13-0) eased past the University of Valley Forge (6-8) in tonight's 94-48 final as dominant ratios in rebounds (49-39), turnovers (11-23), and a 27.6% (16-of-58) Patriot shooting percentage precipitated the lopsided score. Graduate guard Dylan Harris (Bloomsburg, Pa.) hit 8-of-9 (.889) from the floor - including 5-of-6 (.833) from three-point range - in his first start for the Red and Gold; he headlined four Griffins in double figures with a career-high 21 points.
January 11, 2025 Griffins Prevail versus Mighty Macs, Win Coach Baron #400 Gwynedd Valley, Pa. - (1/11/2025) - Gwynedd Mercy University (12-0, 2-0) staved off several second-half comeback attempts from Immaculata University (5-11, 0-3) including the last as the Griffins collected win #400 for Head Coach John Baron with an 84-83 Atlantic East Conference (AEC) triumph over the Mighty Macs. The Red and Gold for the majority of the first half, maxing their advantage at nine points on a three-point basket from junior guard Devin Benson (Williamstown, N.J.), 34-25 (4:40), before navigating their way to a 41-38 (0:00) halftime lead. But, the Mighty Macs battled to the bitter end, rallying from 12-point deficit, 70-58 (6:43), to challenge the Griffins at the final buzzer. Senior guard Mike Marable (Philadelphia, Pa.) headlined Coach Baron's milestone victory with 23 points, nine rebounds, three assists, and three steals.
January 8, 2025 Overtime Separates Griffins from Pacers in AEC Opener Scranton, Pa. - (1/8/2025) - Overtime certainly served as the determining factor in tonight's Atlantic East Conference (AEC) season opener as Gwynedd Mercy University (11-0, 1-0) hit 7-of-9 (.778) from the field and 4-of-6 (.667) from the free throw line en route to an 87-78 victory over Marywood University (8-7, 0-2). The Griffins took the opening stanza by a 36-25 score as they held the Pacers to 9-of-21 (.429) effort from the floor. The second half was nearly the opposite as the home team recovered by a 43-32 frame that saw the Red and Gold only find success on 38.2% (13-of-34) of their field goal attempts. In the end, graduate guard Shawn Summers Jr. (Monclair, N.J.) led four Griffins in double figures with 20 points; senior guard Mike Marable (Philadelphia, Pa.) was one of the others as he paired his team-high 12 rebounds with 16 points.
December 17, 2024 Griffins Win 10th Straight as Five Score in Double Figures versus Eagles Florham Park, N.J. - (12/17/2024) - Gwynedd Mercy University (10-0) made it 10 in a row in 2024 with this evening's 105-70 victory at Saint Elizabeth University (3-8)!

Senior guard Aquil Stewart (Philadelphia, Pa.) headlined Gwynedd Mercy University's impressive three-point shooting performance with his 6-of-11 (.545) clip.
