The Shocker defense held the 49ers to 11 points or less in all four quarters, forcing 17 turnovers and holding Charlotte to 17-for-55 (30.9 percent) from the floor and 0-for-11 from behind the arc.
 
🗣 "For us to be able to get revenge and come out and play how we know we can play … is why I'm happy," Terry Nooner, head coach.

🔼 Taking Titles Like It’s Their Job. The Shockers claimed three event titles, one meet record and one school record on the final day of the AAC Indoor Championships Saturday at the Birmingham CrossPlex.
 
After taking second in the pentathlon on day one, Destiny Masters opened day two with a season-best high jump clearance of 1.83m/6'0" to win back-to-back AAC indoor high jump titles. Hudson Bailey won the second title of the day, winning the heptathlon with 5,295 points. Luke Czarnecki claimed the silver medal with 5,178 points.
