App State basketball secured its first power conference win in eight years with a 61-60 victory over Louisville Tuesday night, moving to 3-0 on the season.
For a long 10-15 seconds for App State fans, it seemed like heartbreak when senior Louisville guard El Ellis had a buzzer-beating layup counted by the referees to win the game, the Cardinal’s first lead of the night.
After a replay review, it was determined the ball was still in his hand when the clock ran out, reversing the call on the floor and giving App State the win in thrilling fashion against the storied ACC program.
