LITTLE ROCK – Hosting a team from New York City, it was only fitting that "Mr. New York City" came up big in Little Rock. Markquis Nowell finished with 28 points, adding six rebounds and four steals to propel the Trojans to the 67-56 win over St. Francis Brooklyn at the Jack Stephens Center.
"Markquis had some big plays for us tonight and really helped ignite our offense when it was struggling," said head coach Darrell Walker. "It wasn't a great night for us and we had times where it was really hard to score, but our defense came up big.
