Another quality opponent, another close loss for Coastal Carolina.
The Chanticleers fell 67-65 to College of Charleston on Friday night at the HTC Center, and have now lost games to South Carolina, Wake Forest and the Cougars by a combined eight points over their past four contests.
Poor outside shooting doomed the Chants, who fell to 6-7 in their final non-conference game. After hitting 10 of 20 three-point attempts in their last outing against Wake Forest – an 84-80 loss – CCU hit just one of 16 attempts from beyond the arc Friday.
Charleston (9-3), an NIT team last season, has won seven of its past eight games with its only loss in that stretch at Rhode Island.
