JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Aloys Cabell scored 24 points to lead Jacksonville over Kennesaw State 73-71 on Monday night.
Cabell was 7 of 10 from both the field and the free-throw line as the Dolphins (8-20, 6-11 Atlantic Sun Conference) won their third straight.
Jacksonville allowed Kennesaw State to shoot 64.7 percent in the second half (22 of 47) but held on in the final 2 minutes. The Dolphins led 73-68 with 1:34 left, and the Owls pulled within two on Romain Henry’s layup and a free throw by Markeith Cummings.
The Owls (3-26, 0-16), however, couldn’t snap their 17-game losing streak as Henry’s 3-pointer with 1 second left came up short.
