Tuesday, December 29, 2015


Four games were scheduled for Tuesday, with a real opportunity for the SoCon to improved both the out-of-conference win.loss record and the conference RPI. However, the SoCon only went 2-2 on the day.

A one point, the Mocs pushed their lead out to as many as 29 points as Lipscomb  hit only 29% of their field goals. Brett Wishon led the Bisons with 14 points.

Asheville's Dylan Smith scored the game-winning shot at the buzzer as the Bulldogs defeated Furman 67-65 Tuesday night.
