Clinton, SC. The Paladins (6-5, 0-2) gave up a four-point halftime lead early in the second frame and lost to the Blue Hose (5-5) for the first time in the last five meetings in a proverbial "trap" game against red-shirt-senior-laden team in a high-school-caliber gym in between trips to Western Kentucky last Saturday and UGA this Friday. Senior Brandon Sebirumbi led Furman in scoring with 20 points. Senior Bryson Barnes added 10 points.
Update. Graham was in uniform for the first time this season and hopes to return to full-contact practice next week.

Furman 85 Jacksonville 79
Timmons Arena. The Paladins (5-4, 0-2) built a 16-point in the second half and hung on from there to defeat the Dolphins (2-6) and even the series between the two schools at 7-7.
Furman was led by Graham's roommate Richard Brown, Bobby Austin, and Charlie Reddick, each of whom contributed 16 points. Rich and Bobby combined to shoot 16-20 from the free-throw line, most of them coming in the final minutes of the game when the Paladins turned back a Dolphin surge that cut the lead to as few as three points.
Furman now hits the road for four games over the holiday break and returns to home action against the Citadel on January 5.
Injury Update. Graham reports that trainer Steve Hopkins clear him to return to full practice this week. Or maybe next.
