The Basics

How It Happened
First Half

Both teams started out slow but after a Lamar Morgan three cut a Tennessee State lead to 9-7, the Tigers went on an 11-2 run over the next 2:08 to take its largest lead of the period at 20-9 with 12:36 left.
The duo of Cedric Council and Nigel Marshall sparked a surge by the Eagles as Marshall hit a jumper and Council converted on a pair of three-point plays to make it a 22-19 game.
After the teams traded jumpers, TSU extended its lead to six and in the closing minutes Coppin's Brendan Medley-Bacon and Tennessee State's Stokley Chaffee exchanged dunks on ensuing possessions as the Tigers took a 33-27 halftime lead.

Second Half

Chad Andrews-Fulton used his size to make an easy layup to start the second half and after a TSU jumper, Coppin scored seven-straight which was capped off by a Morgan triple to give CSU its only lead of the game, 36-35 with 17:11 to play.
Neither team scored a point for nearly three minutes before TSU regained the lead on a layup by Tripp Davis with 14:44 remaining.
