Another late lead is lost as Shawnee State hands Tigers fourth straight loss on the road

PORTSMOUTH, Ohio — Playing shorthanded and down to only seven available players overall, Campbellsville couldn't hold off a late run by Shawnee State and falls, 82-81. 
 
The loss gives No. 10 Campbellsville four straight in conference play and CU falls to 16-6 overall and 2-5 inside MSC play. 
 
The Tigers saw another second-half lead disappear as freshman Sam Weining hit his second 3 of the day with 13:51 left and put the Tigers ahead, 54-43. Hagen Tyler followed suit with a 3 to put CU ahead by eight with 11:02 left but then it was downhill from there. 
 
Gio Jackson and Juwan Grant both put the Bears on their back in the final 12 minutes. Grant scored 14 of his 20 points in that time frame, including four technical free throws – two at the 9:56 mark after a Juan Duran technical foul and two more with 1:10 left after Coach Brent Vernon was carded his first T of the year. 
 
Jackson aided Grant in the final minute and scored half of his points – 5 of the 10 - in that span. 
 
Andrew Smith led the Tigers with another double-double of 26 points and 15 rebounds. He finished the day with a game-high five assists and was 11-of-20 overall from the field in 36 minutes of action. Tyler was 5-of-8 from 3-point land and tallied 23 points in all 40 minutes. 
 
Stephaun Adams also played all 40 minutes and finished with 10 points to round CU out in double figures. 
 
Deion Evans had a quick start with seven early points in the first six minutes but was hampered with foul trouble and mustered only two more the rest of the way for nine points. 
 
With the loss, Campbellsville will now look to end this skid on the road at Cumberland University on Thursday night, Jan. 31. Tipoff is scheduled for 9 p.m. ET in Lebanon, Tennessee. The Tigers also play at Lindsey Wilson on Saturday, Feb. 2 at 5 p.m. ET.
