The top Hurricane Highlight of the men's basketball season came over a critical five-game conference stretch that helped the 'Canes turn around its season.
The No. 3 Hurricane Highlight of the 2012-13 men's basketball season came off senior Matt Shaw's historic 27 point outing against Columbus St. in the Storm Dome.
It was only fitting that seniors Milos Kleut (22 pts, 10 reb) and Matt Shaw (20 pts) led the Hurricanes to a 92-80 win over North Georgia on Senior Night.
Alan Arnett posted a double-double, Jamon Hawkins dished out nine assists and Matt Shaw scored a game-high 17 points in the 'Canes 70-52 win over Georgia College on Saturday.
The Hurricanes fell behind 17-0 to start the game, fought back to grab a six-point lead in the second half only to miss a shot at the buzzer for the win.
The 'Canes cut a 16-point deficit down to three but could not get over the hump and suffered their third-straight loss, an 84-77 decision to Young Harris on Saturday.
Jamon Hawkins scored a career-high 24 points and Daryl Davis added a career-high 17 in a losing effort as the Hurricanes drop a back-and-forth affair with USCA, 67-64.
An 8-0 run in the middle of the second half erased the Hurricanes largest lead of the afternoon and provided the necessary spark for North Alabama to garner a 74-65 victory.
For the first time in program history, the Hurricanes are 2-0 in conference play. Milos Kleut led GSW to a 70-54 win over Clayton State on Saturday with a game-high 17-point, 10-rebound performance.
For only the 2nd time in 13 meetings as a NCAA program, GSW defeated Georgia College. The Canes won 63-59 Tuesday in Milledgeville as four GSW players scored in double figures.
