ROCK HILL, S.C. — ROCK HILL, SC— Rahsaan Edwards and Deaquan Williams each scored 12 points as South Carolina State defeated High Point 67-66 in the inaugural No Room For Racism Classic at the Rock Hill Sports & Events Center Friday.
Jemal Davis added 11 and Cameron Jones added 10 for the Bulldogs (3-7) who won their second straight game after the buzzer-beater victory a week ago at South Florida.
The Bulldogs led High Point by as many as 14 in the second half before Tubby Smith's squad mounted a furious comeback which fell just short.
S.C. State will return to action Tuesday night at third-ranked Duke.
