By Sam Neter on March 8, 2020

Danny Evans has helped Saint Anselm extend its own conference record by claiming its ninth Northeast-10 Conference postseason title with a thrilling 65-63 victory in overtime against the University of New Haven on Saturday.

The top-seeded Saint Anselm (21-8) team has earned the league’s automatic qualifying bid to the NCAA Division II tournament, as they will enter on an 11-game winning streak.

Evans had 11 points in his 39 minutes of action, as the Hawks overcame a 13-point deficit to force overtime and eventually capture the team’s first NE10 postseason championship since the 2016-17 season.

Evans is now averaging 14.1 points, 5.8 rebounds and 3.1 assists per outing for Saint Anselm, who were winners of the 2019 NCAA Division II East Region Championship.

They will learn their First Round opponent via the NCAA.com Selection Show that is scheduled to air later today.

Do you like our work?

We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.

We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.

We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.

If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.

We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
