It was going all the way around forever, Robinson said. It really freaked me out for a second.
Christopher found success by going to the big guy. The 6-foot-6, 230-pound Robinson... had only two points at halftime.
Suddenly a 26-20 deficit was turned into a 30-26 lead. Christopher's Jaxen Robinson (20) and Westmont's Matthew Taylor (13) follow the ball.
Westmont scored the next seven on a 3 by Ebuka Okeke, a basket by Robinson down low and a layup off a steal by Quinn Ledesma Old-Elk.
