AMERICUS, Ga. -- The Georgia Southwestern men's basketball team lost on the road against Lander University on Saturday afternoon. This was the second matchup between the two schools this season. GSW won the first matchup 62-61 at home in the Storm Dome.

The Hurricanes cut the lead in half and had a three-point opportunity to tie the game and send it into overtime, but the shot did not fall putting GSW at 9-16 this season.

Jarrett Adderton and Donte Tatum led the team in scoring with 17. Devon Higgs followed closely with 14 of his own. DaJuan Moore of Lander came off the bench and scored 30 points on the night. The Hurricanes have one more regular season game left on the schedule as they take on Clayton State on the road.
