Gary Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports
Down 14 points on the road with four minutes to play doesn't seem like a very desirable situation for any basketball team.
Unless, of course, you are Monmouth.
The Hawks turned in a comeback for the ages Friday, ending the game against Rider on a 17-2 run to erase the deficit and capture the improbable victory on Justin Robinson's step-back 3-pointer.
