The Cougars\u2019 top scorer went 6-for-11 from the floor and 9-of-10 from the free-throw line, while dishing out seven assists in the win. Chris Davis Jr. put forth a 17-point, five-rebound effort, seeing three of his six makes go down from distance. Connor Hickman rounded out those in double figures with 10 points. Following Sunday\u2019s win, Charleston will ride a five-game winning streak into the postseason. The Seahawks\u2019 Nolan Hodge knocked down four 3-pointers en route to a 15-point showing, while Patrick Wessler notched his league-leading 15th double-double with 11 points and 16 boards.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nCharleston\u2019s Colby Duggan hit a pair of early treys to help his team secure an 8-2 edge. Christian May sparked a 19-4 scoring spree with a make from distance, helping the Seahawks secure a 21-12 lead with eight minutes to play in the opening frame. Jahnathan Lamothe and Hodge eventually made it a double-digit advantage, 29-17, as the duo connected on a trio of trifectas to force a Charleston timeout. UNCW carried a 35-23 lead into halftime.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nThe two teams traded blows early in the second frame until Counter rattled off eight points on a 15-5 run that brought the Cougars to within four, 46-42, at the 13:40 mark. Davis brought CofC to within three following treys on back-to-back possessions. The Seahawks\u2019 Greedy Williams quickly retaliated with a triple of his own to reclaim a six-point cushion. Counter continued to pester the Seahawks defense, rattling off six straight points for the Cougars before Hickman knocked down a trey to make it a two-point game, 63-61, with under four minutes to play. Davis and Hickman finished off the comeback and the team\u2019s 12-1 run at 2:34 to put Charleston ahead, 67-64, for the first time since the 15:36 mark of the opening frame. A furious finish ensued as both sides battled through contact to complete a plethora of three-point plays. Hodge nailed a trey with under two seconds to play, pulling the Seahawks to within one, 77-76. After a pair of free throws made by Hickman, UNCW\u2019s May put up a final heave and nearly watched it fall through, only for it to rattle around the rim and out.<br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; CAA Men\u2019s Basketball Recap \u2013 March 1, 2026&#13; 3\/1\/2026 10:00:00 PM &#13; &#13; &#13; Dylan Smith &#13;&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":633586,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3724],"tags":[7],"class_list":{"0":"post-633585","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-basketball","8":"tag-basketball"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/116157363448841926","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/633585","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=633585"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/633585\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/633586"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=633585"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=633585"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=633585"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
