JACKSON, MS- The Rhodes Lynx out scored the Majors 40-22 in the second half and pulled away for a 67-45 win over the Majors in the Hangar Dome on Sunday. 

The Majors erased a hot start from Rhodes, closing the half on a 12-4 run to trail 27-23 after 20 minutes. However, the Lynx shot 58 percent in the second half (to the Majors 26) to seal the victory. 

The Majors' first-half rally was sparked by Joshua McSwain who hit a trio of baseline jumpers to kick start the offense. Millsaps trailed 9-2 early and 23-15 before the late rally. A pair of Myles Moore free throws got the Majors with in two at 25-23 before a buzzer-beating lay up from Luke Collins put Rhodes up four at the break. 

The Lynx would catch fire midway through the second half, going on a 20-3 run over a five-minute stretch to put the game away. 

Millsaps used a balanced attack on Sunday, with nine players scoring a basket. Moore led the Majors with nine points, but Rhodes kept Millsaps off balanced all game. The Majors were limited to 30 percent shooting from the field.

Marc Robertson had a game-high six rebounds for the Majors and Millsaps won the rebounding battle 30-29 and scored all six second-chance points. One of the big stats of the game was Rhodes turning 13 Millsaps' miscues into 21 points against just seven points off turnovers for the Majors. 

The Majors now sit at 2-6 in conference and 6-13 overall. They head to Georgia next weekend to take on Oglethorpe and Berry. The Petrels await on Friday night, tip time is set for 7pm central.
