CLINTON, Miss. --- The Mississippi College men's basketball team will play their final home game of the season on Saturday when they host The University of Alabama in Huntsville at 4:00 p.m. in A.E. Wood Coliseum.

During halftime of the women's game, the Choctaws will honor four seniors participating in their final home games as Choctaws. They will honor Jay Case, Jaron Edwards, Emmanuel Ezejiofo and Rayner Fredrick.

This will be the 6th all-time meeting between the two schools with MC holding a 5-0 edge in the series. MC traveled to Huntsville to open the 2015 portion of the schedule and picked up a 71-67 victory over the Chargers, erasing a 6-point deficit with just 3:04 remaining. The Choctaws went on a 13-3 run to close the game, including two big free throws by Tory Rice to ice the game with one second remaining. Rice led the way with 14 points and six rebounds, while Tristan Moore had 12 and seven assists and Johnny Rucker had 11. Seab Webster led UAH with 22 points, while Troy Saxton had 10.

Head coach Don Lofton is in his 11th season at the helm, winning his first two games of the season for his 180th career victory. Lofton has compiled a 110-33 (.769) record at home, including a perfect mark in the 2005-06 season.

The Choctaws won their fourth straight game with a 76-73 victory over North Alabama on Thursday night. The Lions took a 13-point lead to open the second half, but a 22-6 run by the Choctaws put them back ahead. The game was close the rest of the way, but MC went 4-of-4 from the free throw line in the final 24 seconds to clinch the win. Rice set a new MC single-season record with his 13th double-dobule, scoring 23 points with a season-high 16 rebounds.

Freshman Stacey Mack continues to mature as the season progresses, averaging 8.4 points and 4.5 rebounds per game. He has scored in double-figures in four of the last five games and has recorded double-doubles in three of the last four. The McComb HS product tied a season-high with 15 points and set a season-high with 14 rebounds against North Alabama. Tristan Moore has averaged 24.5 points per game over his last two contests and made two free throws to give MC the lead in the final seconds against UNA.

Led by 18th-year head coach Lennie Acuff, the Chargers are in a three-way tie for first place in the Gulf South Conference. The top seven spots in the league are just two games apart with four games to go, so the Chargers still have much to play for down the stretch. They are coming off an 86-76 loss to Delta State on Thursday night that saw the Statesmen shoot 52% from the field.

The Chargers are led in scoring by Seab Webster (16.5 ppg), who is shooting 44% from the field and 36% from the three-point line. Preston Herring is averaging 12.9 points and a team-high 8.3 rebounds per game, while shooting 66% from the field. Ronnie Mack averages 11.5 points per game and is 63-of-187 (34%) from the three-point line this season.
