LAST TIME OUT at VMI (2.8.25)

Cam Glover's pull up jumper tied the game at 11-11 seven minutes into the contest.
A pair of VMI free throws opened up a seven-point edge, 28-21, before 3-pointers from Glover and Moore cut the deficit to three, 30-27 with 4:10 remaining in the first half.
The Keydets ended the session with an 11-4 spurt to hold a 41-31 lead at the break.
VMI kept the momentum going to start the second half, beginning it on a 13-3 run, to balloon the margin to 20 at 54-34.
The Citadel showed some fight with an 8-0 spurt to close the gap to 13, 59-46, forcing VMI to talk things over at the 12:11 mark.
A pair of Keydet free throws extended the difference back to 17, 68-51, but back-to-back threes and an Adebisi dunk capped off a 12-2 Bulldogs run that shrunk the deficit back to single digits, 68-61 with 6:15 to go.
VMI responded with the next five points after its timeout, 73-61, before a Fox layup with 54 ticks remaining made it an eight-point affair, 76-68.
The Citadel had to foul to give itself a chance but VMI went 6-for-6 from the line in the final seconds to hold off the Bulldogs, 82-70.

FIRST TIME AROUND

The Terriers finished the half on a 15-4 run to hold a 52-26 advantage at halftime.
Fox and Glover began the second half with 3-pointers, part of The Citadel's 8-0 start to the half, to force a Wofford timeout two minutes in.
Glover hit another triple out of the timeout as the Bulldogs shrunk the deficit to 15, 52-37, before a pair of Fox free throws.
Wofford finally got on the board in the half with a 3-pointer of its own to stop the bleeding at 55-39 at the under-16 media timeout.
The Terriers led 66-52 after a made free throw at the 7:27 mark but long balls by Fox and Davidson, part of an 8-2 Bulldogs spurt, cut the deficit to just eight, 68-60.
Wofford answered with a 3-pointer on the following trip down the court to go along with two makes from the charity stripe to push the margin back to double-digits, 73-61, at the under-4 timeout.
The Bulldogs were unable to get it back to single digits as the Terriers made their free throws down the stretch to hold on, 79-68.
