Furman 75 Roanoke 49

Timmons Arena. The Paladins (1-0) started slowly and finished strong against the feisty D-III Maroons (0-1). Senior forward Brandon Sebirumbi led Furman in scoring (15 points) and rebounding (11), followed by junior Bryant Irwin (14 points), and red-shirt sophomore Charlie Reddick (11 points). The game only stayed as close as it did on account of the Paladins' collectively cold shooting hand, as they made 39% of their shots but only 26% (7-27) from beyond the three-point line.
Injury Report. Graham got good news yesterday, as Wednesday's cervical and thoracic MRIs showed no evidence of a fracture or structural damage from the neck strain he incurred in practice on October 15. He could return to practice as early as next week, when the team returns home from a Monday-night matchup against Columbia in New York City.
