Morgan State forward Kevin Thompson had 18 points and 10 rebounds to help the Golden Bears defeat South Carolina State for the MEAC championship. Thompson also had five blocks.
Thompson and Reggie Holmes (who had 17 points) have been a lethal combination for Morgan State. The Golden Bears have won seven straight and if they play a complacent Tier 1 team, they could pull a surprise. Thompson has 22 double-doubles this season.
