UH wins in AAC Tournament quarterfinals game
FOX 26 Sports Anchor Mark Bermann has more on the game as well as what's next for the Cougars.
FORT WORTH – The University of Houston men’s basketball team is moving on to the semifinals of the American Athletic Conference Tournament after beating East Carolina, 60-46, in the quarterfinals.
Senior guard Marcus Sasser – the conference Player of the Year – lead all scorers with 30 points, as the top-ranked Cougars overcame a sluggish first half to improve to 30-2 on the season.
Sasser’s outburst was the lone bright spot on offense for UH, who shot just 28.1% (16-57) from the field.
The Cougars will face Cincinnati in the semifinals Saturday at 2pm CT.
