The Golden Eagles failed to snap their four-game losing streak against the Tulane Green Wave, but fell short in a 47-point second half comeback effort, 72-64.
Southern Miss jumped to an early 8-2 lead, but the team was plagued by five back-to-back turnovers after their fast start. The Golden Eagles’ gameplan fell apart as Tulane then went on a 16-0 run that proved to be unrecoverable for the Golden Eagles.
The Golden Eagles were not able to shake off the early stumble and fell into a scoring drought that lasted for over six minutes. The shooting woes led to 5-of-22 shooting from the floor and a 4-of-11 performance from the charity stripe.
