The Warhawks’ nosedive down the closing stretch of the year finally hit the ground to coincide with the end of their season.
After a seven-game skid to end the regular season, ULM (11-21; 7-11) was a one-and-done in the Sun Belt Conference Tournament in the Pensacola Bay Center. The 10th-seeded Warhawks allowed the seventh-seeded Georgia Southern Eagles (17-5; 9-9) to extend their lead out Thursday in the final stretch into a 66-57 win that signed off on the end of the Warhawks’ 2022-23 campaign.
ULM had its seventh-worst shooting night from the field and sixth-worst night from beyond the arc in the loss as a result of Eagle pressure on Jamari Blackmon and Tyreke Locure, ULM’s top scorers.
