JACKSON -- Senior guard Chris Sanders had a season and game-high 20 points for Millsaps and three others notched double figures as the Majors pulled off a huge upset of the 11th-ranked Trinity Tigers on Friday night 86-67 in The Hangar Dome.

Millsaps (8-15, 5-8 Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference) played fantastic basketball all night long in picking up a win they had to have, dishing out 22 dimes against a season-low five turnovers.  Senior \#Chad Songy\# had seven of the Majors' 22 assists to give him 103 for the year, as he became just the second player in school history to go for back-to-back 100-assist seasons (Tim Wise).

The Majors came out of the gate firing, building a double digit lead in the game's opening 4:58, as \#Blake Martinez\#, Sanders and Songy all hit 3-pointers and got the crowd in it early. 

A 9-0 run opened a 30-13 lead for Millsaps with 7:56 left in the first half until Trinity responded with a 12-4 spurt of its own to get it within single digits.  The Tigers ended the half hitting 6-of-8 from the floor but trailed 44-34 at the break.

Millsaps controlled the second half and never let Trinity get any closer than eight, following up 46 percent shooting in the first half with 40 percent shooting in the second.  The Majors outscored the Tigers by nine in the period, 42-33, and did a nice job getting to the charity stripe (15-of-19) and making their free throws count.

Trinity (19-3, 10-2 SCAC) was led by B.J. Moon with 19 points on 7-of-10 aim, while three others scored in double figures.  The Tigers lost for just the third time all year but second in three tries on the road.

Millsaps will close out its regular season home schedule on Sunday, welcoming Southwestern University to town who just picked up a huge road win at Hendrix.  Tipoff is set for 2 p.m. on ATWSportscast.
