LMU downs Carson-Newman to advance to SAC Tournament final
JEFFERSON CITY, Tenn. – Fifth-seeded Carson-Newman (21-10) reset its own South Atlantic Conference Tournament record for field goal efficiency, scorching the nets to the tune of 68.9 percent shooting, en route to a 104-95 win over fourth-seeded UVA Wise (18-11) in the quarterfinals of the SAC tournament Wednesday afternoon at the Rock Hill Sports and Events Center.
The 68.9 percent shooting mark breaks the Eagles' own record. C-N made 66.12 percent of its shots in the quarterfinals of the 2009 tournament against Lenoir-Rhyne. It's the second-best shooting night in school history to a 69.6 percent effort against Anderson on Jan. 18, 2017.
