Rory White scores a game-high 25 points and Ed Rains adds 21 to lead the Jags to a 66-63 victory at UNC-Charlotte, wrapping up a 10-0 Sun Belt Conference mark and the program’s first-ever league championship; it’s the first time in SBC history that a school has completed the regular season with an undefeated record.  John May supplied 10 points and nine rebounds, and Lonnie Legette contributed eight points and seven assists for USA, which would face Louisville in the Jaguars’ first-ever NCAA Tournament appearance en route to finishing with a 20-7 overall record.
