NASHVILLE — Vonterius Woolbright scored 22 points and grabbed 12 rebounds and his driving layup with 1.5 seconds to go sent Western Carolina to a 63-62 win over Vanderbilt. Despite the fact Western Carolina led for 30:06, the Commodores appeared poised to close it out when Tyrin Lawrence made two foul shots to give the Commodores their biggest lead of the game at 60-53 with 3:12 left. But Western Carolina responded with a 3-pointer from Tre Jackson and Russell Jackson Jr. made three foul shots with 2:17 remaining. The next three combined offensive possessions failed to produce points before Woolbright made a layup with 51 left.
