Petteway scores 13, Robert Morris holds off Wagner 57-51.
MOON TOWNSHIP, Pa. (AP) — Malik Petteway scored 13 points, Jon Williams hit a clutch jumper and Robert Morris went 8 of 8 from the foul line in the last half minute to defeat Wagner 57-51 on Saturday.
The Colonials (12-9, 7-1 Northeast Conference), who have won four straight, had let a 12-point lead midway through the second half slip down to 47-45 when Wagner’s Elijah Davis made a pair of free throws with 1:32 to play. Williams knocked down his late-in-the-shot clock jumper with a minute to go, Josh Williams then made four-straight free throws and Matty McConnell made four straight.
Robert Morris led 24-19 at the half, when a total of 11 fouls were called and one free throw was shot. There were 24 fouls in the second half and Wagner went 15 of 16 from the line and RMU 15 of 17. Both teams shot less than 35 percent.
Romone Saunders scored 16 points for the Seahawks (9-10, 4-4), including three free throws and a 3-pointer in the last 10 seconds to force RMU to make free throws.

Turkey’s Flying inside Fischer’s New Brighton Foodland

(New Brighton, PA.) Turkey’s were flying in the produce department of Fischer’s New Brighton Foodland on Saturday January 26, 2019. Well kind of. Beaver County Radio was at it again being a trailblazer in fun while helping Mike and Ron Fischer celebrate the Grand Opening of the beautiful Fischer’s New Brighton Foodland located at the corner of 5th Ave. and 9th Street in New Brighton by having a turkey bowling contest. You may ask a real turkey? Yes a frozen turkey and all contestants had to do was try and knock over one of 3  plastic bottles of pop. The key was to knock over the right one that had a winner sticker on it to win a great prize that was donated by one of many of New Brighton businesses that helped celebrate the grand opening!!! As shoppers came in the door they were surprised when they saw that they really would be bowling a turkey. Frank Sparks and Gary Miller did a live broadcast on Beaver County Radio for 12 noon to 2 p.m. as shoppers were bowling and winning prizes.  Even Beaver County Radio’s super fan Tom Lesnick showed up for the fun.

Check out all of the pictures of the fun.
