The Charlotte 49ers (3-5) took down East Carolina University (6-5) 55-49 on Tuesday, Dec. 18. It was a good showing for the Niners, who largely controlled the pace of the game, only trailing once. The 49ers would start out hot, forcing a defensive stop and a shot clock violation on the way to a 6-0
Hitting two straight 3s to start the game was huge for our confidence and grabbing positive momentum from the get-go. We seemed to stay in a pretty good game rhythm the rest of the way. I was most disturbed by the desperation shots we missed as the shot clock expired too many times.
