Deon Thompson knows as well as anyone how hard it is to beat Serbia on its home court, but the USA World University Games team did just that in a thrilling 68-66 victory on Tuesday that featured 14 lead changes. "This gives us confidence, but we're going to see them again," Thompson said in an exclusive phone call to CarolinaBlue.com after the game from Belgrade, Serbia.
