In the win over Syracuse, SMU rallied from a 12-point deficit to win on a tip-in by

Matt Cross added 10 points, eight rebounds and a season-high five steals as SMU finished with 12 steals in the game. Samet YiÄŸitoÄŸlu had a career-high four steals to go with 12 points, three rebounds and a blocked shot.
SMU is averaging 81.5 points (3rd ACC, 25th NCAA) while shooting 48.4% (2nd ACC, 28th NCAA) overall and 38.4% on threes (3rd ACC, 19th NCAA). The Mustangs are also leading the ACC in total rebounds (39.0, 25th NCAA), steals (7.9, 65th NCAA) and fastbreak points (13.5, 34th NCAA).

First-year head coach
Andy Enfield took the helm of the SMU program following 11 seasons at USC, where he led the Trojans to five of the last eight NCAA Tournaments, including a run to the Elite Eight in 2021. He took over an SMU program that finished last season 20-13 after earning an NIT bid. That was the Mustangs' sixth postseason berth in the past 10 possible postseasons, including two NCAA bids and four NITs.
INAUGURAL ACC SEASON (13-6): SMU's inaugural ACC home slate (6-4) includes Virginia (W, 63-51), [4/4] Duke (L, 89-62), Georgia Tech (W, 93-71), [25/rv] Louisville (L, 98-73), Cal (W, 76-65), Stanford (W, 85-61), Pitt (W, 83-63), Wake Forest (L, 77-66), [18/17] Clemson (L, 79-69) and Syracuse (W, 77-75). The Mustangs' road ACC contests (7-2) are Boston College (W, 103-77), North Carolina (L, 82-67), Virginia (W, 54-42), Miami (W, 117-74), N.C. State (W, 63-57), Virginia Tech (W, 81-75), Notre Dame (W, 97-73), Cal (W, 81-77), Stanford (L, 73-68) and Florida State (Mar. 8).Â
ACC TOURNAMENT: The ACC Men's Basketball Tournament is March 11-15 at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Mustangs enter Saturday tied for fourth in the ACC standings with North Carolina at 13-6. An SMU win coupled with a North Carolina (vs Duke) loss would give the Mustangs a double bye, which is a spot in the quarterfinals on March 13. A UNC win or an SMU loss means the Mustangs would play a second-round matchup on March 12.Â
LAST GAME (W, 77-75 vs Syracuse on March 4): DALLAS (AP) --
Keon Ambrose-Hylton tipped in the winning basket with 2.9 seconds remaining to lift SMU to a 77-75 win over Syracuse on Tuesday night. Ambrose-Hylton had given the Mustangs (22-8, 13-6 ACC) their first lead of the second half when
Boopie Miller fed him in the paint with 46 seconds remaining. Jaquan Carlos tied the game with a free throw before Ambrose-Hylton followed Miller's miss for the winner. JJ Starling got up a shot from inside the halfcourt line but the ball went in-and-out at the buzzer. Miller was back after missing five games with an injury and the point guard finished with 11 points and five assists.
Kario Oquendo scored 16 points to lead six Mustangs in double figures. Lucas Taylor scored 13 points and Jaquan Carlos 12 with eight assists for the Orange (12-18, 6-13), who also had six scorers in double figures. Three-pointers by Chris Bell and Kyle Cuffe Jr. gave Syracuse a 12-point lead midway through the second half. SMU tied the game at 73-all on a Samet Yigitoglu free throw with 1:29 left. The Orange led 41-36 at halftime after Carlos banked in a straightaway 3-pointer at the buzzer. SMU held leads for only 1:28 of the game. The Mustangs shot 54% but were just 13 of 27 from the line.

HEAD COACH ANDY ENFIELD... was named SMU's Head Men's Basketball on April 1, 2024. A proven winner, Enfield burst onto the coaching scene in 2013 when, in his second year as a head coach, he guided Florida Gulf Coast to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament. Following that success, he was hired by the University of Southern California (USC), where he led the Trojans to five of the last eight NCAA Tournaments, including a run to the Elite Eight in 2021.Â
He came to SMU after 11 seasons at USC, where he compiled a 220-147 record. Enfield quickly brought success to the basketball program upon his arrival, as the Trojans set a school single-season win record and posted the most wins in program history over two-year, three-year, four-year, five-year, six-year, seven-year and eight-year periods. Enfield's 220 wins ranks third on USC's all-time wins list, trailing only Sam Barry (260) and Forrest Twogood (251). In 13 seasons as a head coach Enfield has a 261-175 mark.Â
Â
His teams also excelled in the classroom by setting the program's top team GPAs. Enfield brought in eight consecutive Top-30 recruiting classes, with the 2022 class ranking No. 7 and the 2023 class ranking No. 4.
Â
Over his final seven seasons at USC, the Trojans had eight players selected in the NBA Draft, tied for the fifth-most by any program in the country, with Evan Mobley going No. 3 overall in the 2021 NBA Draft and Onyeka Okongwu being selected No. 6 in the 2020 Draft. USC was one of three teams to have had at least one player selected in six of the last seven NBA Drafts. In total, 11 players during Enfield's time at USC have made the NBA.
Â
