UNC downs The Citadel 72-58, heads to SoCon semifinal

Francis Alonso added 12 points and Marvin Smith and Isaiah Miller scored 10 points apiece for the outright SoCon champion Spartans (25-7), who will face the winner between No. 4 Mercer and No. 5 Wofford in Sunday's first semifinal.

The Bulldogs led 36-32 on Frankie Johnson's 3, but James Dickey's layup sparked a 12-0 run for a 44-36 Spartans' lead. UNCG led by 10 but Leandro Allende's fast-break dunk off a Kaiden Rice steal cut it to 66-58 with 1:03 left. Jordy Kuiper and Alonso combined for six free throws from there.

Zane Najdawi scored 17 points with four 3s, Allende added 12 and Matt Frierson 10 for The Citadel (11-21), which hit 11 3s but shot 35 percent from the field.
