PJ Haggerty scored 23 points, Dain Dainja had 22 points with 12 rebounds and 16th-ranked Memphis won the American Athletic Conference Tournament with an 84-72 win over UAB.

To try and keep pace with a scorching UAB offense, Pirates’ guard RJ Felton led the game in shot attempts and scoring, finishing the game with 31 points on 19 shots. It wasn’t enough for East Carolina, whose starters outside of Felton combined for just 32 points total.
