Junior forward Malachi Alexander scored a career-high 26 points as the Holy Cross Crusaders defeated the Lehigh Mountain Hawks, 59-56, to become the 2016 Patriot League champions.

Holy Cross won the title for the sixth time in history, which is also the most in the history of the Patriot League. They also became the lowest seed (#9) to ever win the PL Tournament.

With a record of 14-19, it's likely the Crusaders will get a low seed when the NCAA Tournament bracket is revealed this Sunday evening at 6 pm.
