TEMPE, Ariz. – History was made at Wells Fargo Arena on Sunday afternoon and more than 10,000 fans were in attendance to watch it.
In front of a large and loud crowd, No. 5 Arizona State proved it could win a different type of ballgame and secured its best start in program history with a determined 76-64 victory over visiting Vanderbilt.
"Well, I guess we can play a little defense too," said head coach Bobby Hurley after the historic win. "It was such a great feeling to coach that game, see us go on that second half run and hear the crowd roar like I haven't heard since I got here.
