No. 17 Morehouse Holds off FVSU Second-Half Upset Bid

FORT VALLEY, Ga. – The Wildcats cut points off an eight-point halftime deficit for the first nine minutes, but they could not full get over the mountain. After Fort Valley State tied the game with 11:32 left in the game, No. 17 Morehouse College ran off the next 11 points and held off the home team's upset bid, 63-50, on Monday night.
 
FVSU (6-19/5-9 Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference) chipped away and chipped away at its deficit until Shawn Foxbrennen downed a right-wing trey to bring the game to 40-40. The Wildcats turned over its next three possessions and the Maroon Tigers (17-3/11-3 SIAC) converted and started its 11-0. The home team put together one last charge as Brenton Cliette Jordan downed a baseline jumper to make it 51-48 with 3:17 showing, but Morehouse netted the following nine points in the next two minutes.
 
K'Viontae Williams sliced through the Maroon Tigers defense for a game-high 19 points on 6 of 12 shooting to go with five steals and three rebounds. Foxbrennen added 16 points on 5 of 9 attempts and grabbed seven boards. Cliette Jordan finished with eight tallies and four rebounds.
