He posted doubles against, Fisk, Eastern Kentucky, and two each versus UT Martin and Austin Peay. He has ten in his career, the most on TSU’s active roster. Covington was named OVC Player of the Week at the end of December, the first TSU player to be named since Dec. 15, 2008 (Jerrell Houston). He currently leads the team in shooting in FG (.502), 3FG (.438) and rebounds (7.4 rpg).

MILLER TIMEPatrick Miller has scored in double figures in 20-of-29 games. He was named OVC Freshman of the week for the third time this season after posting a game and career-high of 22 points in TSU’s win over Tennessee Tech. Currently, he has been named more than any other freshman after receiving the honor in back-to-back weeks to open the season.

Miller curently is the leading freshman scorer in the OVC. It’s starting to become a familiar sight during the second half as Miller has been able to hit from the field in the closing minutes of a game. He scored 16 of his 22 points in the second versus TTU. Against Murray State, Middle Tennessee State, Illinois State, and Air Force, he was held scoreless in the first half only to return to score double digits in the second. For the third time this season, he tied then a career high in points with 16 against MTSU. He previously scored 16 points in the same fashion versus Air Force.

GIVE ME MOOREJUCO transfer Kenny Moore leads the Tigers in scoring (14.4 ppg) and is second in rebounds (6.8 rpg). He was named OVC Newcomer of the Week three times this season. Moore’s top moment this year is a career high, 25 points, versus Eastern Kentucky.

He hit another career mark against Memphis, hitting 5-of-6 from the three-point arc to help finish with 22 points in the game. Moore gathered his first newcomer honor for his performance in the Tigers’ upset over Morehead State. He recorded 19 points and 11 boards for a consecutive double-double performance versus Morehead State. He transfers in after help leading Johnson County CC to a NJCAA Division II National Championship in 2009 before transferring to Midland CC for the 2009-10 season.

WHERE THERE’S A WIL THERE’S A WAYWil Peters received his first league weekly award of his career when he was tagged OVC Player of the Week for his performance against Austin Peay State (01/15/11). He scored 16 points, hauled in a season high, seven rebounds, and tied a career high in assists with nine. Peters hit the game winner in overtime to lead the Tigers over rivals, Austin Peay State.

His most memorable performance this year was against Eastern Illinois. He was perfect from the floor scoring a game and career high 21 points. He shot 7-of-7 from the floor, 4-of-4 from three-point range and 3-of-3 from the line. Against Middle Tennessee State, he recorded a career high in assists with nine.

GREEN DAYMichael Green leads TSU in blocks with 51, averaging 1.8 per game. He is second in the OVC behind Morehead State’s Kenneth Faried. Green has blocked a shot in 25-of-29 games. Out of his 51 blocks, 31 has led to 51 points for the Tigers. He tied a career-high with five in the first meeting against Tennessee Tech after posting the same number versus Middle Tennessee State.

THE “FRESH” CONNECTIONFreshmen, Patrick Miller and Michael Green, have combined for 54 starts. Miller has started every game this season and Green has started in 24 consecutively. They both lead the league’s fresh-men class in several OVC categories.

Miller is the top leading freshman scorer in the conference with 11.4 points per game. He is fourth in the conference in minutes played per game (34.4), leading all freshman in the OVC with time on the floor. Green is the only freshman ranked in blocked shots and is second in the OVC with 51 (1.8 bpg).

A NOBLE EFFORTJacquan Nobles has been productive off the bench as the Tigers’ sixth man. He leads all scorers off the bench 7.5 ppg. Nobles holds the team’s second best free-throw shooting percentage with .842 and has scored in double figures nine times this year, including a season high, 17 points, (5-of-6) against Tennessee Tech on Feb. 14.

Nobles is one of four Tigers who returned from last season finishing as the team’s second leading scorer. At the end of the year, he joined teammate Robert Covington on the 2010 OVC Newcomer Team.

Starkville, Miss. - To open the 2010-11 basketball season, Tennessee State University dropped a hard fought contest to Mississippi State, 75-65, in Humphrey Coliseum on Friday night.

The Tigers shot 35.9 percent from the floor with three players posting double digits. Robert Covington, Kenny Moore and Patrick Miller each scored 13 points. Covington and Moore each hauled in a team-high seven rebounds.

The Tigers trailed by as much as six in the first half but rattled off a 9-2 run with under five minutes to play in the half to post their largest lead of the night 26-21. The Bulldogs answered with an 11-5 spurt tying it up before the break on a three-pointer at the horn, 31-31.

In the second, MSU opened up on a 9-4 run to recapture the lead, 40-33, but the Tigers led again outscoring the Bulldogs, 13-4, with 9:14 remaining, 46-44. Late in the half, TSU trailed by 10 points with 1:14 left, but scrapped their way back in to narrow the lead from a 9-4 run, 70-65, with 25 seconds left.

The Bulldogs hit five straight free throws down the stretch to survive the scare. For MSU, Ravern Johnson led all scorers with a career-high, 32 points, including 13-of-14 from the free-throw line netting his 1, 000th career point in the process.

Kodi Augustus recorded the only double-double with 14 points (5-of-9) and a game-high 14 rebounds.

Charleston, Ill. - The Tennessee State University Tigers missed an opportunity to send the game into overtime suffering an OVC loss to Eastern Illinois, 68-67, in Lantz Arena on Mon-day night.

With five seconds remaining, Chris Conner was fouled on a three-point attempt hitting the first two before EIU called a timeout. Conner missed the third but the Tigers committed the quick foul leaving 4.9 seconds on the clock.

EIU’s Shaun Pratl missed the first shot in the bonus. On the scramble for the rebound, the ball fell loose and was batted around starting the clock. TSU gathered the loose ball but had run out of time and couldn’t get off a last second shot.

Wil Peters scored a career and game-high 21 points. He was flawless from the field shooting 7-of-7, including 4-of-4 from three-point range, and 3-of-3 from the line. Peters also tacked on three boards and tied a game-high for a season best six assists.

Robert Covington scored 15 points and hauled in a team-high nine boards, hitting 3-of-6 from the arc. Patrick Miller followed adding 11 points and three assists.

TSU (1-6, 0-1 OVC) shot a season high from the floor, 50 percent, and 52 percent from three-point range. The Tigers shot 64 percent in the first half and tied the game at the buzzer when Miller nailed a three from the corner for a 40-40 deadlock at the break.

With 20 lead changes, the Tigers jumped on a 50-46 lead with 12:40 left. EIU replied with a 7-0 run for a 53-50 advantage. TSU led twice down the stretch with their last coming off a Covington three-pointer with 5:03 remaining. From there, EIU outscored TSU, 9-6, for the final outcome.

For the Panthers (3-4, 1-0 OVC), four players finished in double figures. James Hollowell and Shaun Pratl each scored a team-high, 14 points. Tyler Laser added 13 and Jeremy Granger posted 12 points. Curry McKinney scored seven points but recorded a game-high 10 boards and six assists. EIU outscored the Tigers in the paint, 34-22, scoring 22 points from TSU turnovers.

In the first half, TSU jumped out in front courtesy of unanswered runs of 6-0, 11-0 and 8-0, while holding the Colonels scoreless for over seven minutes to hold the largest lead of the game, 41-15, with 1:39 left.

In the second, EKU cut the deficit with a 22-8 run to bring the score, 49-39, with 6:09 remaining. They would come as close as nine points twice with their last coming under a minute remaining. With less than three minutes of play and the score 54-43, TSU out-scored EKU, 8-6, hitting 3-of-4 from the field and 4-of-5 from the line down the stretch.

For EKU (5-7, 1-3 OVC), Joshua Jones and Josh Daniel scored in double figures. Jones netted 15 points with four assists and Daniel shot 3-of-6 from the arc, 5-of-6 from the line, to add 14 more.

The Tigers led from the start, racing out to a 22-6 run midway through the first half. They followed with a 12-4 run for the largest margin of the night, 34-12. The Redhawks scored on another shot before the break, but TSU carried the advantage to the locker room, 32-14.

In the second, SEMO opened up with a 7-0 run, and then outscored the Tigers, 14-10, tclosing the lead to single digits, 44-35. SEMO continued to hack at the lead but TSU answered in the last minute to produce the final score.

SEMO (9-20, 6-11 OVC) finished shooting 45 percent overall behind Lucas Nutt, Leon Powell and Marland Smith. Nutt shot 5-of-7 and finished with game-highs, 15 points and five assists. Powell scored all of his 14 points in the second half hitting 6-of-8. Smith chipped in 10 points and Marcus Brister tallied a game best 10 rebounds.

Nashville, Tenn. - The Tigers wrapped up the 2010-11 season carrying Tennessee State University over Eastern Illinois in conference play, 66-62, at the Gentry Center on Saturday night.

TSU (14-15, 10-8 OVC) ends a three-game drought to the Panthers and remains the fifth seed for the upcoming 2011 OVC Basketball Tournament next week.

The Tigers picked up their third straight victory to close out the regular season. Despite shooting a season-low, 32 percent from the floor, four players managed to score in double figures.

Robert Covington posted his eighth double-double of the season, tenth of his career, with 22 points and 11 boards. He shot 6-of-15 from the field, including 3-of-4 from the arc while going 7-of-8 from the line.

Wil Peters and Kenny Moore matched their efforts adding 11 points and three assists each. Patrick Miller chipped in 10 points and two steals. Moore also finished with nine rebounds.

TSU trailed 35-32 at the break but took their first lead in the second half with 5:09 remain-ing, 56-52. With the score tied at 58 with 3:53 left, TSU outscored EIU, 8-4, in the final three minutes of the game.

After the score was knotted up, the Tigers tallied all of their points from the line, hitting 8-of-11, while holding EIU to 2-of-8 shooting to close out the game.

EIU (9-20, 4-14 OVC) ends their season winning one of their last 11 games while dropping their second straight. They shot 40 percent from the field and evened the Tigers on the boards with 39.

Curry McKinney scored a team-high 19 points and James Hollowell finished 7-of-14 for 14 points. Jeremy Granger dished out a game high six assists to go with nine points.
