PARADISE ISLAND, Bahamas (AP) — A few hours sleep was all Tennessee needed.

Jarnell Stokes scored 20 points and grabbed 10 rebounds, Jordan McRae added 16 and weary Tennessee beat Xavier 64-49 on Friday afternoon at the Battle 4 Atlantis, earning a trip to the tournament's fifth-place game and avenging a loss to the Musketeers 2½ weeks ago.

Jeronne Maymon scored 14 on 6 for 8 shooting for the Volunteers (4-2), who led by as many as 21.
