Warriors Unable to Sweep Season Series Against Millsaps, Fall Friday in Mississippi

JACKSON, Miss. - Looking to sweep Millsaps (11-12, 3-9 SAA) for the first time since the 2015-16 season, Hendrix (9-14, 5-7 SAA) recorded just 19 first half points and recorded 22 points in the final half as the Warriors fell to the Majors, 52-41, Friday night in Jackson, Miss. With both teams a combined 1-for-22 from deep in the first half, Hendrix recorded a 1-of-19 mark from beyond-the-arc while recording three assists on its 13 field goal makes.

TURNING POINT
After sophomore guard Jack Eaton pulled Hendrix within six following an and-one conversion, Millsaps scored the next five points to take a double-digit lead with 4:16 to go.
HOW IT HAPPENED
- Through the first four minutes, Millsaps accounted for 11 of the first 14 points before Eaton recorded his first field goal of the night with 12:41 to go until halftime.
- After not scoring for more than six minutes, two free throws from freshman big man Alex Conrad brought the Warriors within 7 with 4:30 left.
- Back-to-back field goal makes by freshman forward Seth Stanley and senior guard Preston Smith allowed for Millsaps to take a 22-19 lead into the break.
- Stanley and freshman guard Sean Coman recorded the lone field goals for the road team in the opening five minutes of the second half but Hendrix trailed just 25-23 with 15:19 left.
- After Conrad ties the game up, a 10-0 run in less than three minutes allowed Millsaps to take a 35-25 lead with 9:37 left.
- With 5:47 to go, Eaton converted a successful old-fashioned three-point opportunity to bring the Warriors within six but that would be as close as Hendrix would get as the Majors held on for an 11-point win.

OF NOTE
- Conrad tallied a team-best 11 points off the bench in his return from injury; shot 7-of-8 at the charity stripe and collected three boards.
- Stanley chipped in 10 points for the second-straight game; the 17th time this season the freshman has reached double-digits in scoring.
- Coman added nine points on 4-of-9 shooting; also pulled down a team-high nine rebounds.
- Eaton accounted for five points off the bench while Smith knocked down his 222nd career three-pointer; 26 shy of the all-time program record. Smith's three-point make was the lone trifecta for the Warriors Friday night.
- The Warriors shot 13-of-49 from the floor, 1-for-19 from deep and 14-for-24 at the free throw line while Millsaps shot 17-for-59 from the floor, 5-of-25 from deep, and 13-for-22 at the charity stripe.
- Hendrix recorded a season-high 94-point performance Jan. 11 when Millsaps traveled to Conway; Friday, Hendrix carved up a season-low 41-point performance against the Majors in Mississippi.

WHO'S NEXT
The Warriors will remain out east as part of the final road regular season contest of the 2018-19 season. The Warriors will face off against Birmingham-Southern Sunday at 3 p.m. looking to avoid the regular season series sweep against the Panthers.
