Last Time Out
RJ Felton led all scorers with a career-high 27 points on 10-of-19 shooting but SMU's high-scoring second half proved to be too much as the Pirates fell to the Mustangs 86-70 on Sunday afternoon in Moody Coliseum. Jaden Walker recorded his first career double-double with 18 points and 10 assists for the Pirates who struggled to keep SMU off the glass and out of the paint on the afternoon. Ezra Ausar added 11 points and Brandon Johnson recorded nine points and six rebounds for ECU.
