FORT WORTH, Texas – Four ULM players scored in double figures, led by Sam McDaniel who matched his career high with 21 points, but the Warhawks came up short in their bid to upset TCU, falling 83-73, in the season opener for both teams. TCU returns its top six scorers, including all five starters, from last year's team which claimed the 2017 National Invitation Tournament Championship.
The first half featured two ties and four lead changes. The Warhawks jumped out to an early 6-2 lead on back-to-back three-pointers from Travis Munnings and Jordon Harris.
