WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (AP) Justin Wright-Foreman scored a career-high 35 points with seven 3-pointers, and Hofstra used a 15-0 run at the end to beat William & Mary 96-82 on Thursday, handing the Tribe their first loss at home this season.

Hofstra (14-16, 6-11 Colonial Athletic Association) ended the Tribe's 12-game home-court winning streak, which is the fifth-longest in William & Mary history and was the 14th-best active streak in the country.

Wright-Foreman had a 3-point play and layup, and Deron Powers added a layup with a minute left and Hofstra was up 89-82. William & Mary (15-13, 9-8) was 1-for-9 shooting down the stretch and missed its last six shots.
