HONOLULU (AP) — Murphy Holloway scored 23 points and grabbed 13 rebounds Sunday to lead Mississippi to an 85-78 win over San Francisco in a Diamond Head Classic consolation-round game.

The Rebels (9-2) rallied from a 13-point deficit in the first half to advance to Tuesday's fifth-place game.

Holloway, a senior forward, had 16 points and 13 rebounds on Saturday in the Rebels' 87-85 overtime loss to Indiana State.

Nick Williams scored 18 points, Marshall Henderson scored 12 and Jarvis Summers added 11 points for Ole Miss, which made 9 of 19 from 3-point range.

San Francisco (5-6) shot 60.7 percent from the field in the first half, but just 40.7 percent after halftime. Cody Doolin led the Dons with 20 points, seven rebounds and eight assists.
