The Charlotte 49ers trailed by as much as 17 points in the second half on Thursday night but the 49ers fought hard and cut the lead down to a one possession game late in the game but could not seal the deal as the Niners fell to the FIU Panthers 69-66. With this loss, Charlotte remains winless in conference play (0-3) and on the road (0-4) this season.
Charlotte finished the game with three players in double figures, led by Jon Davis who finished the game with 24 points and made four three pointers on the night. Freshman Brandon Younger finished the game with a season-high 16 points and Milos Supica finished with 12 points.
