Second-Half Surge Pushes NM State Past Davidson in Myrtle Beach Invitational Opener

CONWAY, S.C. - Ever since the season started, NM State head men's basketball coach Chris Jans has maintained the fact that players for his squad - be they familiar names or new ones - will get opportunities.

Mike Peake got his Thursday afternoon.

After two games of minimal production to begin his NM State career, Peake's play down the stretch - including a big three-pointer, a blocked shot and a key rebound - allowed the Chicago, Ill., to play a major role in NM State's 75-64 comeback victory over Davidson in the opening game of the 2021 Myrtle Beach Invitational.
