The Terriers have the second-best field goal percentage in the SoCon at 47.4%. Two players rank in the top 10 in scoring in the conference with B.J. Mack in third with 16.2 PPG and Jackson Paveletzke in ninth with 14.8 PPG. Paveletzke is very consistent from the charity stripe, going 100-for-118 (84.7%) this season.
RECENT ACTION
The Bears dropped a road contest against Chattanooga, 73-56, on Saturday after being outscored 40-18 in the second half. Mercer was successful offensively in many aspects in the first half, scoring seven treys and going 87.5% from the free throw line, but hit a skid after the first three minutes of the second period.
Jalyn McCreary led the Bears in scoring with 16 points in his 23rd game scoring in double figures this season. Shawn Walker Jr. snagged a season-high five rebounds which tied for the team-lead with Luis Hurtado Jr.
