The Hudson Valley Community College men's basketball completed its second consecutive upset of a NJCAA top-10 program this weekend as they defeated No. 6 Genesee in dominant fashion, 103-79 in the McDonough Sports Complex at Hudson Valley Community College on Sunday afternoon.

The Vikings lead from start to finish over the No. 6 team in the country and led by as many as 30 points to secure their sixth win in the last seven games, which includes three wins over NJCAA top-10 programs.

Hudson Valley's Trevor Green (Lansingburgh / Troy) led the Vikings with a triple-double, scoring 26 points and added 10 rebounds and 10 assists against a quality NJCAA defense. Green shot 9-of-15 from the floor, including 4-of-7 from behind the three-point arc in 31 minutes of action. Jourdan Belcher (Elmsford / Alexander Hamilton) also gave a dominant performance as he finished with a season-high 28 points and added six rebounds.

Genesee couldn't stop the Vikings top duo of Green and Belcher as the Vikings managed to make the extra pass on the offensive end and prevented extra opportunities on defense. Hudson Valley held Genesee to seven second-chance points, while outscoring the Cougars 44-28 on points in the paint.

Kobi Wallace (Lansingburgh / Troy)  had a highly-efficient game, shooting 7-of-11 from the floor and added seven rebounds in 30 minutes on court.      

The Vikings return home on Tuesday, December 13 to take on Rockland at 7 p.m. in the McDonough Sports Complex on the campus of Hudson Valley Community College.
