Murray State is Undefeated No More, Loses 72-68 to Tennessee State

Murray State squandered late chances to save the undefeated season. Trailing by one, the Racers threw away an inbounds pass. But Tennessee State clanged two free throws. Then, Canaan turned the ball over and was called for a foul. Down three with:03 left, they threw the ball out of bounds on a length of court attempt, and Tennessee State hit one more free throw to end perfection.

Here’s a disaster scenario for Murray State – a loss at home to St. Mary’s next weekend and then losing in the conference tournament. In that scenario, they’d be sweating out Selection Sunday.
