MURFREESBORO, Tenn. (AP) Reggie Upshaw made four 3-pointers and finished with 34 points, both career highs, and Middle Tennessee never trailed in its 60-49 win over UAB on Sunday night.

Upshaw scored 10, including two 3-pointers, during that decisive stretch.
Tosin Mehinti led the Blazers with 11 points. It was UAB's lowest scoring output since a 56-47 loss to Florida on Nov. 27, 2014.
