Donavan Monroe drove in the lane, drew an extra defender and passed to Jeremy Simmons who rose and dunked with two hands.
Not to be outdone, Jeremy Saffore later returned the favor when he dunked on Simmons in the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga's 91-88 win over the College of Charleston on Monday.
Saffore and Simmons both play center in the Southern Conference, and that's about where their similarities end.
The SoCon is stuffed with a variety of centers, and the better teams tend to have the better inside presences.
"I don't think it's just our league," Wofford coach Mike Young said. "I see plenty of ACC and SEC teams with post players who can't score a lick. Then you are jumpshot after jumpshot. That's going to work out well on some nights."
Simmons is 6-foot-8 and athletic; Saffore is a towering 7-1. Wofford's Noah Dahlman exploits angles and uses power around the rim. Richie Gordon of Western Carolina relies on an array of post moves and short jumpers.
In the guard-dominated SoCon, the big boys appear to be the difference between an average team and one being in the hunt for a SoCon tournament first-round bye.
"It's a guard league, but we have some very fine inside players," Charleston coach Bobby Cremins said. "The young man off the bench [UTC's DeAntre Jefferson] did a fantastic job. And Dahlman is fantastic. We have better inside players than people think, but no doubt, it's a guard league.
"The teams that usually have the edge, have those big guys. You can't just be an perimeter team. You must have an inside presence."
The top two teams in the North and South divisions have that presence. In the North, it's Jefferson and Saffore for UTC, and Gordon for the Catamounts. In the South, Dahlman is the reigning player of the year, and Charleston has a tough time winning without a good game from Simmons.
"There's four or five different kind of bigs we face in the conference," Gordon said. "It would be one more if [App State's] Isaac Butts was playing because he's just a big body."
Dahlman is third in the SoCon with an average of 19.2 points per game and has yet to make a single 3-pointer this season. His teammate, Tim Johnson, leads the SoCon with an average of 8.5 rebounds per game. Davidson's Jake Cohen leads in blocks with 1.6 per game and Jefferson leads in field goal percentage at 64 percent.
"That's basketball. When you have big guys who can play, if you can create a situation feels that they need to trap the post, then you're going to get great looks," Furman coach Jeff Jackson said. "You always want a chance in your arsenal to play four versus three. At the mid-major level, a lot of times that's done with guard penetration. But when you can get that done with post feeds, it really putts a lot of opposing pressure on the defense. Then you're getting stranding looks."
And that's where the SoCon's supreme guards come into play.
