Bears’ season ends in crushing fashion to Mississippi State

By Ben Everett | Sports Writer

No.1-seed Baylor men’s basketball fell to No. 4-seed Mississippi State Sunday afternoon 78-77 Sunday afternoon to end its season at the Ferrell Center.

The Bears (19-15) fell victim to a last second three-pointer by Mississippi State junior guard Quinndary Weatherspoon that bounced off the rim and fell into the basket.

Baylor had come back from as many as 20 points down to take a 71-62 lead with under five minutes to play, but could not hold on for the win.

Senior forward Terry Maston tied a career-high with 26 points in his final game in a Baylor uniform.
