FVSU Clipped in Final Moments by Spring Hill

MOBILE, Ala. – The Wildcats saw the game slip through their paws. After a Spring Hill College 3-pointer with 2:12 left broke a deadlock, Fort Valley State's go-ahead 3-pointer and put back be unsuccessful and fell in a tough 82-78 men's basketball final.
 
After a Tristan Davis 3-point play with 31 seconds left pulled his team to within two points, 80-78, FVSU (3-15/1-8 Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference East) turned up the pressure defense and forced a Spring Hill (4-15/3-7 SIAC West) turnover. The Wildcats' Zachary Boggs long trey went off the far side of the rim and pulled in by K'Viontae Williams, whose put back was blocked to end the visitors' game-tying attempt.
 
On the night, Shawn Foxbrennen returned with a team high 18 points on 6-off-11 shots and 4-for-6 from long range go to with seven rebounds and two assists. Williams was right behind for the Wildcats with 17 points, six boards and two assists.
 
Brenton Cliette Jordan chipped in 12 points and six caroms, while Gregory Holloway added 11 points. Davis handed out six helpers, netted 10 points and grabbed five rebounds.
 
Chase Shellman's 20-point night led four double-digit Badgers scorers.
 
Following a Foxbrennen 3-pointer to open the game 24 seconds in, FVSU did not lead again until 12:14 later on a pair of Holloway free throws to make it 22-20. The first half remained no more than a 6-point margin until the Wildcats took a tight, 41-40, edge to half.
 
FVSU came out of the half strong and went out to the game's largest margin of nine, 54-45, on another Foxbrennen triple at 17:19 left. The Wildcats led 60-49 at 14:01, before the Badgers edged their way back to even, 64-64, in the next four-minute stretch.
 
FVSU enjoyed leads of 71-66 and then 74-70 (5:07) before Spring Hill bounded back again down the stretch.
 
The Wildcats completes the two-game week by traveling down to its rival Albany State on Saturday night, Jan. 26, in an 8 p.m. game.
