Trojans (9-0) in elite company

Much of the list reads like a collection of teams included in a mock NCAA Tournament bracket.

There's Iowa State, Michigan State, Oklahoma, Purdue, South Carolina, SMU and Xavier.

Then there's UALR, which under first-year Coach Chris Beard has gotten off to its best start ever and is one victory from tying the school's longest winning streak and joining an eight-team group of the last remaining undefeated teams in NCAA Division I.

The Trojans (9-0) host Northern Arizona (2-7) at 1 p.m. today at the Jack Stephens Center in Little Rock.

Through the first nine games, UALR is holding its opponents to 53.
