ROCK HILL, S.C. – Xavier Cooks tallied 27 points and 10 rebounds, and Joshua Davenport blocked an Ike Smith jumper as the final horn sounded to lift Winthrop to an 86-84 non-conference men's basketball victory over Georgia Southern Tuesday afternoon in the Winthrop Coliseum.
Georgia Southern had the ball trailing by two points after Davenport missed a free throw with 27 seconds left. Mike Hughes' 3-point try from the wing hit the front of the rim and caromed all the way into the backcourt, where Jake Allsmiller retrieved it with 6.
