NC State secured an 82-70 win over Saint Louis, turning the game around with a strong second-half performance where their 3-pointers started to connect, leading to 29 points off turnovers. 'I thought our second half was tremendous,' said an NC State representative. Morsell and Horne, who is known on Twitter as @djhorne0, were particularly effective, going 8 of 10 from three after halftime. Horne continued his impressive streak, shooting 60% from deep over the last three games. In another game, College of Charleston's Reyne Smith had a standout performance with 31 points, including a school-record 9 out of 20 three-pointers, as his team defeated St. Joe's 89-82. With 5:39 left in the game, Smith was the best player on the floor, and Ante Brzovic's second-half efforts helped the Cougars withstand a late comeback attempt by the Hawks.
