Wake Forest Holds On To Top High Point 87-83

HIGH POINT, N.C. (AP) -- C.J. Harris and Tony Chennault each scored 20 points and Wake Forest held on to beat hot-shooting High Point 87-83 on Wednesday night.

Travis McKie added 18 points for the Demon Deacons (6-3).

They shot 58 percent (28 of 48), hit 13 3-pointers, led for all but roughly 3 minutes and withstood a furious rally to claim their 13th win in 14 meetings between the schools.

Nick Barbour had a season-high 35 points and seven of the Panthers' 15 3-pointers.

Barbour's 3 with 30.4 seconds left pulled High Point to 85-83. Nikita Mescheriakov and Chennault each hit a free throw to push the lead to four. The Panthers (2-6) couldn't get a good look during their final possession, with Xavier Martin and Barbour missing 3s in the final 15 seconds.
