USC Aiken Captures PBC Tournament Championship!-Mar 10, 2025
Behind 22 points from Most Valuable Player Jalen McCoy (6'5''-G-2002), the University of South Carolina Aiken Pacers won the 2025 Peach Belt Conference men's basketball tournament title 92-76 over USC Beaufort on Sunday in Columbus.
With the win, the Pacers, who secured the PBC's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament yesterday, win their first tournament title since 2014 and fifth in program history. USCA will await their draw in the NCAA Tournament tonight as the field will be announced starting at 11:00 pm with a live stream at NCAA.com.
The final score is not truly indicative of how competitive the game was for its majority. USC Beaufort cut the lead to three at 64-61 with 7:57 to play on a layup from Sfanos Tasso. A McCoy layup built that lead back to five, but the Sand Sharks cut it to two on their next possession with a three-pointer from Hudson Norton (6'4''-G).
The Pacers responded with a Davion Cunningham (6'3''-G) layup to start a 5-0 run that ended when USCB got a layup from Kenney Gaines (6'1''-G) to leave the score 71-66 with 5:25 to go. USCB would not score again for nearly two full minutes as the Pacers scored 10 straight to put the game out of reach.
McCoy finished with 22 points, eight rebounds and block while Cunningham added 20 with seven rebounds to earn All-Tournament laurels. Rafael Rubel (6'0''-PG-2000) added 15 while Simeon German (6'10''-F) III led the Pacers with nine rebounds to go with seven points and three blocks.
USCA shot 47% from the field in the game and held a 47-39 rebounding edge. USC Beaufort struggled with their long-range shooting, hitting 9 of 35 three-point attempts.
Dominic Eason (6'7''-F) led the Sand Sharks with 22 points while Kenney Gaines had 11 points and a team-high nine rebounds. Both players were named to the All-Tournament team. Kevaughn Price (6'2''-G) scored 12 for the Sand Sharks.
