Two nights after scoring only 54 points in a win over Georgia Southern, the Paladins (19-7, 11-4) used a 51-point second half to power past the Wildcats (13-13, 7-8) and break an 11-game losing streak against Davidson in
an 88-79 victory. Senior point guard Darryl Evans scored a career-high 24 points; sophomore Colin Reddick recorded his first career double-double with 12 points and 10 rebounds; and senior Jordan Miller tallied 14 points (and two crowd-pleasing blocks in the final minute) after scoring a total of 14 points in three games since returning from a bout with pneumonia. Furman hit 13 consecutive free throws down the stretch to hold Davidson at bay in the closing minutes. Two of them were by Graham's roommate, freshman guard Rich Brown, who entered the game at the 1:33 mark and hit nothing but net twice with 1:13 left to push Furman's lead from five to seven points.
