BOONE, N.C.-An adventurous week has ended.
The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga lost 78-68 in Southern Conference men’s basketball at Appalachian State on Saturday night with the student section chanting, “Get your flu shot!”
The loss came 24 hours after the Mocs lost 69-68 at Western Carolina on a last-second foul. That was followed by a three-hour bus trip and a false fire alarm at 5 a.m.
“It’s unrealistic, what we had to do,” UTC coach John Shulman said. “We put everything we had on the line last night. I couldn’t have been more proud. We played [essentially] without three starters and should have beat Western.
“Last night was fun. Tonight wasn’t.”
