Runnin' Rebels fall to Memphis in close game Saturday afternoon

The game featured eight lead changes and nine ties, including one with 3:25 to play at 68-all, but a late spurt by the Tigers, who shot 71.4% from the floor in the second half (20 of 28), proved to be the difference. Memphis' PJ Haggerty led all scorers with 29 points on 10 of 18 shooting and 9 of 12 on free throws. Colby Rogers and Nicholas Jourdain also scored in double figures with 16 and 12 points, respectively, and Dain Dainja grabbed a game-high 11 rebounds to go along with nine points and four assists.
