TEMPE, AZ. – Led by a career-high 20 points from sophomore guard Kodi Justice, the Arizona State men’s basketball team (8-3) defeated Houston Baptist 98-79, improving to 8-3 on the season.
“I thought it was a good offensive game for us tonight.” said head coach Bobby Hurley. “ I thought Eric (Jacobsen) established himself in the first half scoring inside, got us a presence in the paint. Obviously Kodi (Justice) had the outburst in the second half that kind of separated ourselves from them. He was very good as was Tra (Holder).
