UALR sporting Sun Belt target
Keith Richard exited the Jack Stephens Center at 10 p.m. on Jan. 9, his Louisiana-Monroe men's basketball team having just missed by inches on winning a Sun Belt Conference road game.
Three of Richard's players had a chance in the final seconds, but each shot rolled off the rim as UALR escaped with a 58-57 victory. Richard and his team were packed and out of the visitor's locker room in less than 30 minutes, but the coach left with a distinct impression of the new-look Trojans.
"Something really nice is going on with their team," Richard said this week.
