Murray State wins 2022 OVC Championship Presented by TicketSmarter - Mar 6, 2022
Tevin Brown (6'5''-G-1998) scored 23 points to lead No. 22 Murray State over Morehead State 71-67 on Saturday night, giving the Racers their 20th consecutive victory and the Ohio Valley Conference tournament championship.
Tournament MVP Justice Hill (6'0''-PG) added 21 points for the Racers (30-2, 18-0), who shot just 38% from the field but won the rebounding battle 47-31 and had an edge on second-chance points (16-7).
All of it was needed against the defending OVC tournament champion Eagles (23-11, 13-5), who got an MVP-like performance from forward Johni Broome (6'10''-F). He shook off an injury to finish with 32 points and eight rebounds on 13-for-20 shooting.
Neither team held more than a two-possession lead for the entire second half. Murray State was up 66-61 with less than 90 seconds to go, before back-to-back 3-pointers from Tray Hollowell (6'3''-G-1998) kept it within 68-67.
Hollowell finished with 12 points on four 3-pointers, while Ta'Lon Cooper (6'4''-G) added 12 points, five rebounds and five assists.
The Racers had a similar start Saturday night as they did in the quarterfinals the day before against Southeast Missouri State, quickly ripping out to a 12-2 lead. Brown buried back-to-back 3-pointers to start the game.
But the Eagles responded with their own 18-2 run, with four 3s in that stretch.
Murray State and Morehead State were tied at 34 at the half. The Eagles shot 56% in the frame and held the Racers to 33.3%, but the Racers won the rebounding battle 27-11.
This is Murray State's third conference tournament title under seventh-year coach Matt McMahon.
