Behind an inspired performance by Ledrick Eackles, son of Ledell, McNeese rallied from seven down late to beat the Privateers at Lakefront Arena, 72-69.
Eackles, on 6-of-8 shooting (4-of-4 from three point range), had 20 points to lead the Cowboys, including 11 consecutive down the stretch as part of a late 15-2 run.
