LORETTO, Pennsylvania (AP) Darnell Edge scored 21 points, Kaleb Bishop and Jahlil Jenkins added 20 points apiece, and Fairleigh Dickinson earned its second trip to the NCAA tournament in four years with an 85-76 victory over St. Francis (Pa.) in the Northeastern Conference Tournament championship on Tuesday night.

The second-seeded Knights (20-13) shot 64 percent (30 of 47) from the field and beat the top-seeded Red Flash (18-14) on the road for the second time this season. Fairleigh Dickinson's starters accounted for all 95 of its points. Elyjah Williams and Mike Holloway Jr. scored 12 points each for Fairleigh Dickinson, which used a 17-8 run to close the first half to take control and never let St. Francis get closer than three points in the second half.

"We found a way to win tonight over a great team," Fairleigh Dickinson coach Greg Herenda said. "We started 1-4 in the conference and just found a way to come together and win 14 of the last 16."
