Jones connected on a three-pointer with 3:49 to play to give Keystone a 77-75 lead, and advantage the Giants would not relinquish as the visitors went 9-10 from the free throw line in the minute to secure the win.
 
Jones added five assists to his 22-point effort, which came on 8-15 shooting including three made three-pointers and a 3-4 effort at the line.  Cooper and Williams tied for the team-lead with nine rebounds apiece for Keystone, who got eight boards from Devin Williams (Monticello, NY/Monticello) and a pair of blocked shots by Drayton.
