Carolina (11- -11, 4-7) Monday night at Hanner Fieldhouse. The Cats led by 14 at halftime (38-24) but let that lead slip away when Bennett hit a jumper with 10:45 left in. the second half. Fleming followed with a 3-pointer giving the Eagles a 50-47 lead with 10:11 left. However, with 3:06 left, Kevin Martin found an open Corey Muirhead, who hit a 3-pointer cutting the Catamount deficit to one (62-61). A Bennett turnover would:lead to a Martin layup giving the Cats a 63-62 lead. with 2:21 left. Western would go on to take a three-point lead (6-62) with 1:40 left on a David Berghoefer layup. No team would score over the next minute until Fleming made the backend of a two-shot free throw, tying the game at 65. Western had two chances to re-take the lead, but a missed field goal and two missed free throws forced WCU to foul Bennett with 19 seconds left. After Bennett's free throws, Martin and Emre Atsur each had tries to tie the game, but came up short allowing the Eagles to escape with the win. In the first, Western's defense was impressive, taking Georgia Southern out of its comfort zone. The game got off to a slow start with no team scoring until Berghoefer broke the ice with a jumper with 16:47 remaining in the first half. Western would not relinquish its lead in the first half, pushing its advantage to as many as 18 with 2:31 left before the break. Georgia Southern did make a small run at the Cats, getting the score to 15-13 at the 10:25 mark. However, a 21-6 run by Western, including nine point by Berghoefer, gave the Cats their 18 point lead. The Eagles closed the half with a 6-2 run and, while down 14 at the break, would use that momentum to make their run to start the second half. Martin, the NCAAs leading scorer (27.2 ppg), padded his lead national lead by scoring a game-high 34 points. While he was only 7-of-21 from the field, he sank 18-of-19 free throws in scoring 30-plus for the 18th time in his career and the eighth time this season. The junior added eight rebounds and three assists. Berghoefer came through with his sixth double-double of the season, scoring 15 points and grabbing 10 rebounds. Muirhead tied a career-high with 10 rebounds as WCU out-rebounded the Eagles 40-36. The Eagles, who only shot 29.6 percent in the first half, made 50 percent of their shots in the second half and forced 15 WCU turnovers. in the period. Elton Nesbitt led Georgia Southern with 22 points, four rebounds, four assists and four steals. Bennett came off the bench to score 16 points, while Fleming and Terry Williams added 11 and 10 points, respectively. Catamounts Fall, 73-71, to Chattanooga Feb. 7, 2004 Chattanooga used a 9-0 run inside the final 2:33 to go from five down to up four and escape with a 73-71 victory over Western Carolina Saturday night at the Ramsey Activity Center. The Mocs, led by Jason Rogans 21 points and Ashley Champions 21 points and 11 rebounds, improve to 13-8 overall and 6-4 in the Southern Conference, while the Catamounts fall to 11-10, 4-6. The Mocs were down 69-64 with 2:33 left after WCU sophomore David Berghoefer sank a pair of free throws. Senior Ray Trowell, who came off the bench to provide a spark late, had five points, a rebound and an assist during the 9-0 run. Rogan provided the other four points on a layup and two free throws, which gave Chattanooga a 73-69 lead with 23 seconds left. The Cats trimmed their deficit to two (73-71) after Berghoefer got an offensive rebound and a layup with eight seconds left. Western forced Trowell to step on the baseline to give the Cats one final shot with four seconds left. All- America candidate Kevin Martin got the ball just inside the free throw line, but the shot rimmed out as time expired to give UTC the two-point win. Martin scored all of his game-high 23 points in the second half, after getting two quick fouls and playing just three minutes in the first half. The Zanesville, Ohio, native sank two free throws to start the second half and had back- to-back assists as WCU went on an 11-4 run to start the second half and take a two-point lead (36-34). The Mocs would regain the advantage over the next four minutes, until a Martin jumper tied the game at 42-42 with 12:25 remaining. After a UTC missed 3-pointer, James Johnson hit a wide open Alex Osipovitch for a fast break layup, giving the Cats a 44-42 lead. The layup sparked an 15-4 run by WCU, giving Western an 11-point lead (57-46) with 6:28 left. Western held Chattanooga off over the next three minutes. With WCU up five, Trowell got a steal which led to a Rogan layup, making the score 65-62 in WCUs favor with 3:21 left. The teams traded baskets until Berghoefer's two free throws with 2:33 left, at which point the Mocs went on their run to escape with the win. In the first half, Western kept it close with Martin on the bench, trailing by just five (30-25) at the break, as Corey Muirhead scored seven points and had five rebounds, while Osipovitch contributed six points. Champion, who recorded his third double-double of the season, had eight points and seven rebounds in the first 20 minutes, while the Mocs drained five 3-pointers. In addition to Muirhead and Osipovitchs play, Western kept it close by making seven free throws, compared to just one by Chattanooga. However, the Cats were only 7-of-14 at the line overall. In addition to Martins 23 points, Western got 14 points and eight rebounds from Berghoefer, while Kyle Greathouse and Osipovitch each added 10 points. For the Mocs, Rogan was 7-of-10 from the field in scoring his 21 points, while Chris Brown scored 10. Trowell only played 17 minutes, but had nine points and five assists with two steals. Mens Head Basketball Coach Signs Contract Extension Western Carolina Director of Athletics Jeff Compher announced that, based on his and WCU Chancellor John Bardos recommendations, the Universitys Board of Trustees Executive Committee approved a two-year contract extension for Catamount head mens basketball coach Steve Shurina through the 2005-06 season. Coach Shurina has done a very good job of building our mens basketball program into a total program, Compher said. He has stressed the importance of academics and is working hard to be sure that every player has a chance to earn a degree from Western. He has recruited well and has an excellent eye for character as well as talent. We have seen improvement competitively and | am confident that trend will continue. This is well deserved extension for Steve, his staff and most importantly his team. We appreciate his commitment to Western and look for continued success for our basketball program. Shurina, whose four-year contract was set to expire this coming April, has led the Catamounts to an 11-9 record this season. He has done so despite having WCUs all-time leader in blocked shots Rans Brempong miss all but one game this season due to an injury and Brempongs replacement in the starting lineup, junior college transfer Lunzaya Nlandu, missing each of the last 11 games due to an injury as well. Despite the losses, Western has won 11 of its first 20 games in a season for just the 10th time over the past 27 years. However, over the past 18 years, the feat has only been accomplished three times, two of which have come during Shurinas four-year tenure. Shurina, the 16th head basketball coach at WCU, has a 38-69 career record to date and his 38 wins makes him the seventh-winningest Catamount basketball coach. At the completion of his new extension, Shurina would have six years under his belt and be the third-most tenured Catamount head basketball coach, trailing only Jim Gudger (19 years) and Steve Cottrell (10 years). | am very thankful for all those who have supported me, including my players and coaches, the administration, alumni, friends and the fans, Shurina said. There is no question we are building a program, and | stress the word program, that everyone can and will be proud of. Shurina, 37, is a 1988 graduate of St. Johns. He played for Hall of Fame coach Lou Carnessecca at St. Johns from 1984-88 and made four NCAA Tournament trips, including the 1985 Final Four. He was a two-time selection on the Big East Basketball Academic team and he received the McSwinney Award, which goes to the senior male athlete that best typifies a St. Johns man. Prior to his current appointment, Shurina spent one year as an assistant at Vanderbilt (1999-2000), seven years at Davidson (1992-99) - including three years as associate head coach, and two years at Brooklyn College (1990-92). eed] u us { s for rates: we_mexketingasret 1. wea, 0-60
