CANTON, OH- The Cavaliers weren't just looking for a G-MAC win on Thursday night. The Mayor's Cup was on the line as the Pioneers of Malone hosted the second match up of the season. The Maroon and Gold were also looking to snap a five game skid.

It was an all around team effort as the team had four in double figures. With this victory, the Cavs beat their rival both times in the 22-23 season.
