Wagner, which received the No. 2 seed after a strong performance in the regular season, knocked off Central Connecticut State, 72-50.

LIU Brooklyn trailed six-seeded Quinnipiac by four at halftime, but a strong offensive showing in the second half led the Blackhawks to a 91-83 win. C.J. Garner led LIU with 30 points on 10-for-20 shooting.

In the lone upset of the day, No. 5 seed Mount St. Mary's defeated No. 4 Bryant, 75-69.
