February 16, 2011 – FRANKFORT, KY – Morehouse fell to the Kentucky State Thorobreds, 82-75, in a game rescheduled from January 10, because of the snowstorm that paralyzed the Southeast.
The Tigers led at halftime 38-34, but the Thorobreds pulled away by a nose late in the second half, mostly on the strength of outstanding free-throw shooting. The Thorobreds hit 24-of-27 shots from the charity stripe, for a season-high 89 percent.

Daniyal Faquir led the Tigers in scoring, with 17 points, on 5-of-9 shooting from the three-point line.
