ATLANTA – The Morehouse Maroon Tigers closed the r ATLANTA – The Morehouse Maroon Tigers closed the regular season on a high note on Feb. 26, defeating the Spring Hill Badgers 82–72 at Forbes Arena to claim the outright Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC) East Division title and the No. 1 seed in the upcoming conference tournament.

The win was a fitting conclusion to an impressive regular season under head coach Larry Dixon. In his first season leading the program, Dixon guided Morehouse to a 19–9 overall record and a dominant 19–5 mark in SIAC play. The Tigers were one of the conference’s most consistent teams all season, combining disciplined defense with an unselfish offensive approach that made them difficult to scout and harder to stop.
