Eight days after one of the biggest wins in program history, the men’s basketball team had another huge win over a conference opponent as they grinded out a 63-40 victory over the University of South Florida Bulls.
Freshman forward Fabian White had 16 points, junior guard Corey Davis had 17 points and despite a rare poor shooting performance from senior guard Rob Gray, the Cougars won with a double digit lead for the fourth time in the last five games.
The Cougars had two strong halves of defense that led to the lowest point total by an opponent since the 1992-93 season, when they held the Rice Owls to 36 points.
