ATLANTA (Nov. 29, 2016) – One week ago, it was senior guard Jorden Williams that hit a shot with two seconds to play to defeat a USA South team. On Tuesday, it was another senior guard that stepped up for the game-winner with two seconds left over a different USA South opponent.

A mid-range baseline jumper from Clay Born with two seconds to play lifted Sewanee over regional-rival Covenant, 62-60, Tuesday evening inside Juhan Gymnasium.

The shot was part of Born's game-high 14 points as the senior from Ringgold, Ga., finished 6-of-12 from the field. Senior Brody Stone (13), along with Leo Born and Williams, who each had 12 points, also finished in double figures.

In a game that featured six lead changes and four ties, neither team led by double digits the entire game. Sewanee's largest lead was nine after a Matthew Lee jumper. Covenant's biggest advantage was by seven after Z Arima hit a three with 9:25 left in the second half.

Overall, Sewanee made 54.5 percent of its attempts. The Tigers have now made at least 47 percent of their shots in three of their last four games. After making only 11-for-29 shots in the first half (37.9 percent), the Scots rallied to pull their shooting percentage up to 45.6 percent by the end of the contest.

Along with Born's 14 points, he finished with four rebounds and two assists. Stone also had a great all-around game with seven rebounds and two assists. Leo Born led the Tigers on the glass with eight rebounds to go along with three steals.

The two areas of improvement for the Tigers heading into the SAA opener at Centre Saturday will be their free throw percentage and turnovers. The Tigers finished with 24 turnovers and made only 53.3 percent of their attempts at the charity stripe.
