Juniors Cortez Edwards, Dominic Magee and Tyree Griffin helped Southern Miss defeat cross-town rival William Carey, 75-58. The win gives the Golden Eagles their first four game-winning streak in the Doc Sadler era.
“We were not very good offensively in the first half,” said Head Coach Doc Sadler. “Today in the first half, we looked to get ourselves shots. We only had three assists and then had 12 in the second half on 18 field goals.”
The Golden Eagles struggled early in the first half, as they faced deficits as much as seven points at 24-17. William Carey never gave up the lead for the first 17 minutes of the first half.
