Men’s basketball lose on senior night; routed 94-61

The men’s team (3-26, 2-14) lost to the Middle Tennessee State University Blue Raiders 94-61 in its final home game of the season.

This Warhawk season ends as the worst performance in the program’s history with only two wins.

Before the start of the game, the team honored its four seniors: Christian Bibi Ndongo, Fabio Ribeiro, Hugh Mingo and Fred Brown. In the game the men quickly fell down 8-0 in the first two minutes and were never able to claw their way back into the game.

The team fell behind as many as 24 points in the first half as the Blue Raiders (25-4, 14-1) lobbed two alley-oop dunks to keep momentum on their side. At the half, ULM trailed 46-23.

In the second half, MTSU kept the pedal to the metal and held on to the win.

Brown finished with a team-high of 13 points on the night, while guard Mingo added 12 of his own.
