Tyson makes a splash on ESPNU as Hawks topple Pirates for first time in eight seasons.
PRINCESS ANNE, Md. - Ed Tyson put on a show for a national television audience and the rest of the Hawks stepped up to play solid defense as the University of Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) toppled Hampton University 68-62 in what is arguably the biggest upset in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) this season. Tyson poured in 24 points while the under-sized and under-manned Hawks played with heart and out-rebounded the Pirates 41-24.
Fresh off a win over Howard, the Hawks played with confidence in front of a crowd of almost 3,000 fans. They slowed down a Pirates team that likes to run and forced their own pace, forcing Hampton into long range shots and jumpers and then capturing the rebound, limiting second chance points.
