Trapp’s game-winner, Mack’s 32 points lift Tigers over Syracuse

Tevin Mack scored a career-high 32 points Tuesday, but it was Clyde Trapp who made a layup with 2.3 second to play, lifting Clemson to a 71-70 victory over Syracuse at Littlejohn Coliseum in Clemson. Trapp also scored a career-high, dropping in 17 points to go along with the game-winner.

The Clemson win snapped the Orange’s 5-game winning streak.

With seven seconds left Khavon Moore grabbed the rebound off a Syracuse miss and pushed the ball down the court where he found Trapp slashing from the right side. The junior got the ball up and over a Syracuse defender and into the basket for the game-winner.
