The Mustangs led 30-26 at halftime, but they only made 18 of 53 (34 percent) from the field for the game. The Seahawks made 18 of 37 (48.6 percent).

Nick Russell led SMU (8-4) with 20 points, including three 3-pointers. Russell played all 40 minutes for the first time in his career. Jalen Jones had 14 points and 14 rebounds. Ryan Manuel had 15 points.
