Cats douse the Flames

Looking to bounce back from road losses at Oregon and Virginia Tech, the Catamounts traveled to Liberty University's Vine Center on Saturday night.

A 23-point performance by senior Tom Tankelewicz lifted the Cats to a 68-63 road win that avenges last season's one point loss to Liberty in the Ramsey Center.  The Cats are now 3-2 overall.

The Cats shot only 36.8% (21-of-57) from the field, but the Flames poor shooting  (36.7 %) allowed the Cats to remain with in striking distance of the Flames, and allowed the Cats to capitalized on points off turnovers (21-5) and bench points (39-15).

Both the Flames and Catamounts committed 19 personal fouls, which is a significant improvement for the Catamounts.  Western Carolina continues in the Coaches versus Cancer Classic on Thursday, playing at Kent State.
