📈 STOCK UP

🔼  Last Second. The men’s basketball team faced USC-Upstate, and the game was so close that it came down to the final seconds to see who would win. The Pirates came up short by just two points with a final score of 83-81. RJ Felton led the team and got a new career-high with 33 points. Ezra Ausar was close behind with 24 points. Those were the only two players in the double digits. The men are now 2-1 and will face Northeastern on Sunday to start the TowneBank Holiday Classic.

🔼 Already On Top. RJ Felton has been a beast so far this season. He’s already hit a career-high and a double-double in just his first two games. Now, Felton was named to the AAC Honor Roll. Keep up with his stats here.

🤔 PIRATES TRIVIA
