Charlotte, N.C. - Behind five double-figure scorers, the Charlotte 49ers (4-2) defeated the Appalachian State Mountaineers (2-4), 80-72, in Halton Arena on Monday night. Charlotte scored a season-high 48 points in the paint in the victory.
"Good win for us tonight," Charlotte coach said. "A good bounce back, we had some disappointing losses the last two games and so talking to the team yesterday, I told them you are going to get knocked down from time to time, but it's about how you respond to those situations. We were playing a dangerous team tonight; they are aggressive and drive the ball hard to the basket.
