Bowl all-star pick and the state 4-A
defensive player of the year.

GREENVILLE — Tenth-ranked
Southern Methodist remained unbeaten with a 79-55 win at East Carolina
on Wednesday night.
Five players scored in
double figures for the Mustangs with Ben Moore leading the way with
17 points.
SMU got 15 points from
Jordan Tolbert, 13 from Shake Milton and 11 each from Sterling Brown
and Markus Kennedy.
Point guard Nic Moore
had 12 assists and no turnovers as the visitors improved to 16-0
overall and 5-0 in the American Athletic Conference.
The Mustangs will not
compete in the AAC or NCAA tournaments because of NCAA sanctions
relating to academic fraud.

goal attempts for 52.5 percent. The Mustangs were 11 of 22 beyond
the arc for 50 percent.
The Mustangs held a
42-22 rebounding advantage as Kennedy grabbed 10.
"They're a terrific
team," said Pirates coach Jeff Lebo.
