New Rochelle, NY (SportsNetwork.com) - Tre Bowman scored 25 points as the Iona Gaels dispensed with the Siena Saints, 88-74, in Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference action at the Hynes Athletic Center.

Bowman converted 5-of-9 shots behind the 3-point line and also pulled down six rebounds for the Gaels (9-8, 6-2 MAAC) as they won for the third time in the last four outings.

The Saints (7-12, 3-5) were paced by Evan Hymes who dropped in 23 points, while Lavon Long registered a double-double with 16 points and a game-high 11 rebounds, but he shot only 4-of-12 from the floor on the afternoon.
