The Charlotte 49ers (4-11, 1-3 C-USA) won their first Conference USA game and their first road game of the season against Florida Atlantic (11-5, 2-2) 65-60. The 49ers snapped a six-game losing streak.
“We did a good job sharing the ball,” Charlotte head coach Ron Sanchez said. “Defensively, we had a lot of defensive stops. The key to getting the victory today was our defense. We made some shots. Jon’s efficiency today was the best that I have seen. He controlled the game.”
The Niners had three double-figure scorers. Jon Davis led the way with 24 points, a career-high nine rebounds and four assists.
