Dalton Knecht's game-high 24 points helped lead the No. 2 seed Tennessee Volunteers to a 82-75 win over the No. 3 seed Creighton Bluejays in the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament on Friday evening.
Tennessee used an 18-0 second half run to turn a 39-37 deficit into a 55-39 lead in a 4:48 span. Knecht posted six points and four assists during that run.
Creighton stormed back, though, and cut the lead to three points on a pair of occasions (62-59 with 6:02 left, and 65-62 with 4:44 remaining).
