PITTSBURGH, Mich. -- Despite dropping a late-game thriller on Monday (Nov. 6). University of Michigan-Dearborn (1-1) men's basketball head coach Domenic Policicchio III was pleased with his team's effort and watched his team grow a lot over the first two games of the season. Monday's loss came at the hands of the Point Park Rangers (5-0) 83-82, who scored their final two points with one second remaining as the initial basket was no good after being blocked.
