Valiant Second-Half Run Falls Short to No. 7 Mercer in SoCon Quarterfinals, 62-61

The Wofford men's basketball team used a gutsy second-half performance to climb back from a 17-point halftime deficit and take a late lead with just over a minute to play on Saturday evening, though, the seventh-seeded Mercer Bears (17-10, 8-9 SoCon) would manage to find the answer and secure a pair of late stops to drop the Terriers in the quarterfinals of the Ingles Southern Conference Men's Basketball Tournament presented by General Shale Brick, 62-61, at the Harrah's Cherokee Center in Asheville, North Carolina.
