HOT SPRINGS, Ark. - Nate Rohnert scored 16 points, and Denver made 10 of its first 11 field goals in the second half of a 73-58 victory over Middle Tennessee in the quarterfinals of the Sun Belt tournament Sunday night.

The sixth-seeded Pioneers (19-12) used an 11-0 run to break a 27-27 tie early in the second half. Denver went 12 of 17 from the field after halftime, shooting so well the third-seeded Blue Raiders (19-13) weren't credited with a second-half rebound until there were under six minutes remaining.

Denver's Chase Hallam had 13 points and six rebounds and didn't miss a shot, going 3 of 3 from the field -- all 3-pointers -- and 4 of 4 from the free throw line.

Calvin O'Neil led Middle Tennessee with 14 points.

Vandy Football will be the SEC champs, before the Blue Raiders Men go to the Big Dance! Would Rick E. consider coaching the Men, also?
