Top Moment No. 8: Price Spurs Comeback Over ENMU In LSC Tournament

The 2013-14 A&M-Commerce athletic season was filled with a handful of incredible moments, achievements and career milestones. Throughout the summer Lion Athletics will take a look back at the top 15 moments of the year, voted on by athletic administrators and local media members. 
With less than a minute from elimination and facing a five-point deficit, the Lion men's basketball team scored the final six points of the game to escape with a 74-73 win over Eastern New Mexico in the opening round of the Lone Star Conference Tournament on March 7.
 
The Lions had trailed the Greyhounds since midway through the first half and found itself down 73-68 with just 50 seconds to play; however, Tyrie Wooten canned a pair of foul shots to draw with in three.
 
Senior Kameron Price then came up with a steal and found Cameron Blue streaking to the basket for a bucket that cut the lead to 73-72. Just eight seconds later Price stole the ball away again, this time in the backcourt, and worked his way to the foul line with 9.5 seconds to play.
 
He proceeded to hit both foul shots, giving the Lions a 74-73 lead, their first since the 9:02 mark of the opening half.
 
The Greyhounds had one final chance and put the ball in the hands of leading scorer Rodney Blackmon, who drove the length of the court but could not get a high-arching layup to go in over the outstretched arm of LSC Defensive Player of the Year Christian Macauley.
 
The win sent the Lions to the tournament semifinals and snapped a five-year streak of first-round exits in the LSC Tournament, advancing them to the semifinals for the first time since the 2007-08 season.
