Asante Gist had 22 points, Tajuan Agee added 18 and top-seeded Iona defeated Monmouth 81-60 on Monday night to win the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference title for the fourth straight time. It was a rematch of the 2016 title game, which Iona won 79-76, and the result left a bad taste. In the first half, Monmouth was 1 of 2 and Iona hit its only one. NEVER GETS OLDIona has made the title game six straight times under Cluess, who was named MAAC coach of the year for the second time. Iona: The Gaels might lament that this was the last conference tournament in Albany for a while.
