Arizona State returned to the court five days after the crowd-silencing buzzer-beating loss to UC Riverside looking to make a statement against the North Florida Ospreys.
North Florida’s (0-4) Jose Placer made a lot of noise with 25 points and four 3-pointers, but in the end, the Sun Devils (2-1) got the last word with a 72-63 victory.
DJ Horne continued his sensational accuracy from distance, turning in four 3-pointers of his own to add to 16 points which led the Sun Devils. It was a rebound night for Horne after he struggled and scored only two points in 24 minutes in the loss last Thursday.
