[Men's Basketball] No. 6 SSU advances to first MSC title game with 91-82 win over Martin Methodist
Throughout the 2020-21 season, the Shawnee State men's basketball program has come up large when it has been needed the most.
In facing its toughest test of the tournament so far, Shawnee State excelled, fending off a late 7-0 push by the Martin Methodist RedHawks' men's basketball program at one point en route to taking home a 91-82 thriller Monday evening in Mid-South Conference Semifinal action.
It marks the Bears' 21st consecutive victory and puts DeLano Thomas in a position that only the 2002-03 unit, led by Jeff Hamilton, has ever been in program history -- a conference championship game.
