Davidson (4-5) shot 59.1 percent in the second half to conclude the game at 51.9 percent, which included a 9-of-21 effort from deep.

After the Huskies' started the final 20 minutes 6-of-7 from the floor to even the score, 45-45, Davidson responded with another run to push the margin back to double figures, 58-47, and take the lead for good.
The backcourt duo of Gudmundsson and Kellan Grady grabbed seven rebounds apiece as the 'Cats held a 29-28 edge on the glass.
