In the ever dangerous opening game out of exams on Friday afternoon, Tyler Gelormini immediately responded with 15 points in the opening 7 minutes of the game.  MX jumped out to 24 -12 lead but foul trouble and turnovers while working out the week off rust led to a 13-2 Berwick run before the half.  Berwick led by 34-32 at the half and jumped out to a 6 point lead at 39-33 before the Zebras defense went into lockdown mode for the remainder of the game.  With the game tied at 45, a Gelormini 3 at the 6:30 mark gave MX the lead back for good 48-47 and finished at 59-51 as the defense led by Julian Howell's 7 steals held Berwick to 17 second half points and only 4 in the last 6:35.   MX was led by Gelormini's 26 points and 5 three point baskets. Julian Howell responded out of the gate with 7 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists and the 7 steals.  Kevin McGrath and Matt Pelletier complimented the scoring with 7 each.
