Golden Bulls withstand late rally, beat Livingstone

CHARLOTTE, North Carolina -- J.C. Smith’s home finale wasn’t for the faint of heart.

The Golden Bulls outlasted CIAA South rival Livingstone 108-106 Saturday at Brayboy Gym in a game of breath-taking offense. J.C. Smith (13-12, 7-7) led by as many as 16 points and hit 70.4 percent of its second-half shots, yet had to withstand a furious Blue Bears rally that closed the gap to a point with 4.4 seconds left.

“We’re happy for the seniors, we’re happy we had a successful night,” JC. Smith coach Steve Joyner said. “We’re certainly not pleased with a second half where Livingstone scored 65 points and we had to score 59.”
