Juggling act paying off for Flanigan

Wes Flanigan wasn't interested in joking around Sunday at the Jack Stephens Center.

Flanigan's UALR men's basketball team ended a two-game skid with a victory over South Alabama on Saturday night. But with one day to prepare for tonight's game against Troy, he didn't take much time to relax.

"We're going to have to stay on edge," he said. "Last year, we did a really good job of that, just trying to find different ways to stay motivated and have an edge to us. I probably have to do a little bit better job of that."

Keeping a team on edge is something new to Flanigan, who is in his 19th season as a college coach but in his first season as the head coach.
