#5 NASHVILLE STINGS #4 PINCKNEYVILLE, 48-41
Unable to contain the inside scoring threat that is Lucas O’Rear by trying to guard him one-on-one, the Panthers found themselves losing ground quickly to the Hornets late in the fourth quarter.  A three-pointer by Hayden Hicks with a little over 42 seconds left in the game ended a long Panther scoring drought, but it was too little too late as O’Rear finished with 25 points and 12 rebounds in a 48-41 Nashville victory.
