Unfortunately for Coker, they could not get that shot to fall. Junior guard Ryan Fulwood received an inbound pass from his brother Jason and found an opening and drove the lane for a lay-up, but it lipped out and 18^th ranked Pfeiffer came out with an 88-86 victory at Coker’s Timberlake-Lawton Gymnasium on Sunday night.

On the Pfeiffer side, DeMario Grier racked up 31 points, leading all scorers, six from beyond the arc; he shot an even 50 percent from the floor in the game, while also accumulating five rebounds and two steals.
