The basket with 33 seconds left gave IU a comfortable 74-69 lead. The Hoosiers should consider themselves fortunate. Jeffries concluded the spurt with a field goal for two of his 19 points as IU scored on eight of its final 11 possessions during the run. Dane Fife goes up against Charlotte's KenKay Jones as Rodney White, left, waits for the rebound in the first half. This wasn't going to be a pretty basketball game.
Charlotte's a very good basketball team.
Little did Davis know that Newton would be one of his toughest players. Not only did Newton score and rebound, but he also was a significant part of the team's defensive effort. He does a lot of things people may not see. He gets a lot of boards. He keeps balls alive.
