Not sure why no McNeill. Is he O.K.?

Sam Blum reported that McNeill is out with plantar fasciitis.

Ugly break to finish that half...would have liked a final 2 points but defense has given our guys this 10 point lead. Sure hope our guys can find their shots in the 2nd half. Won't be easy to keep pounding it inside once Cisse comes back in but with our bigs having only one foul each, we are going to need to keep taking it to him and hopefully foul him out like they did Anei on Tuesday

I know that pain. Going to need more minutes from Smith IV tonight

Key numbers:

Kendric Davis is 0-for-8 ... and Ponies lead by 10

Moussa Cisse has 3 fouls in 11 minutes

Feron Hunt leads with 13 points, but he's making good shots: 5 of 6 from the floor

[Charleston Pony]

Our guys have taken 31 shots vs only 19 for Memphis. Tigers with 12 turnovers already. Hope that trend continues but their bench looks deeper than ours so I would expect them to make a run in 2nd half as our guys start wearing down

[PonyPride]

Davis breaks the drought — gets on the board with a layup

37-25

[PonyPride]

SMU 5 of 6 in second half, Memphis 4 of 6

45-33, SMU

[PonyPride]

SMU has five 3-pointers in first 5:21 of second half, lead 48-35

[Charleston Pony]

Keep working for good shots. If our guys can keep knocking down open threes this team is going to be tough to beat

[PonyPride]

Hunt now 6-of 7, game-high 15 points

54-41 SMU
