ALBANY, N.Y. -- Rickey McGill and Schadrac Casimir combined for 47 points and Iona led from start to finish, ousting Rider from the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Tournament quarterfinals 88-70 on Saturday night.

McGill scored 25 with four 3-pointers and had six assists while Casimir scored 22, also with four treys and the third-seeded Gaels (20-12) advance to meet No. 2 seed St. Peter's (19-6) in a Sunday semifinal. Iona defeated St. Peter's 69-66 in overtime at the end of January.

The Broncs came as close as 53-46 on a Stevie Jordan layup with 17:15 to play but shortly afterward Rider was held scoreless for more than five minutes while the Gaels went on a 9-0 run.
