Last season, the men’s basketball team lost to Tulane at home 67-66 after a charge was called on Ricky Council IV, a former member of the team, with 13 seconds left.
On Wednesday night, the Shockers came up short again at home against the Green Wave and lost 95-90. This puts them at 3-5 in the American Athletic Conference and they remain at the seventh seed in the conference standings.
Head coach Isaac Brown said his team gave up too many layups and free throws on the defensive end and gave up too many turnovers against Tulane’s zone defense.
