UTC’s Casey Jones finishes an alley-oop in a game against Samford at McKenzie Arena in Chattanooga.Casey Jones fights gravity.
The natural force always wins when the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga guard is sent back to the ground by nature.
But Jones usually defeats his defenders when he is in the air.
“I’m very proud of him,” fellow Mocs sophomore and Louisiana native Gee McGhee said. “I knew he had it in him, but it didn’t come out last year. He’s come a long way.”
Jones is one of many reasons that the Mocs (12-8, 6-0) are leading the Southern Conference more than one-third of the way through a 16-game league season.
