Galloway, N.J. (11/20/12) – The Kean
University men's basketball team fell to host Richard
Stockton College in the New Jersey Athletic Conference opener for

The Ospreys (3-0, 1-0 NJAC) scored the first basketball of the
contest and held on to the lead throughout. Kean falls to 0-3
overall and 0-1 in the NJAC with the loss.
Junior Michael Burton led the Cougars with 10
points while senior Mike Shaughnessy recorded six
