The Mustangs defeated Memphis 58-53, despite struggling on offense throughout the game. SMU ended the night with just two completed three-point shots out of 21 attempts.
“We shoot 9 percent from three against Memphis and you win? Are you kidding me?” said head coach Tim Jankovich after the game.
Both 3-pointers came from junior Tyson Jolly, who led the team with 10 rebounds and 13 points.
Jolly stepped up for the Mustangs towards the end of the first half, which ended on a 14-2 Mustang run.
Junior Ethan Chargois and sophomore Kendric Davis both ended the game with 12 points, and Davis also added six assists.
