| TSU HEAD COACH MIKE DAVIS |
Aaric Murray scored 27 points to lead the Tigers to their first NCAA appearance since 2003 with a 78-73 victory over Prairie View A&M in Saturday's Southwestern Athletic Conference final at Toyota Center.
This will be the third time Davis, the Tigers' second-year coach, has taken a team to the NCAA Tournament, following his 2002 trip to the championship game with Indiana and 2011 with UAB.
TSU, the tournament's No. 2 seed, erased a seven-point halftime lead with a hot-shooting start in the second half.
The Tigers (19-14) went on a 13-0 run in the opening minutes of the second half, led by Murray, the SWAC's Player of the Year, to take their first lead since the opening minutes of the game.
