MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – After its snub from the NCAA Tournament, Middle Tennessee was granted with a home game in the first round of NIT, giving senior Giddy Potts one more chance to put on a show in front of the Blue Raider faithful.
He did just that Tuesday, guiding MT (25-7) to a 91-64 victory over the Vermont Catamounts (27-8) with 25 points on a 6-of-11 night from 3-point range. It was Potts' and fellow senior Edward Simpson's 100th wins all-time, moving them past 2017 graduate Reggie Upshaw into first all-time in program history.
