FAYETTEVILLE -- University of Arkansas freshman guard Keyshawn Embery-Simpson made the most of his time off the bench in the second half against Austin Peay.
Embery-Simpson scored all 14 of his points in nine minutes in the second half to help the Razorbacks rally for a 76-65 victory over the Governors on Friday night before an announced crowd of 8,556 in Walton Arena.
Sophomore forward Daniel Gafford led the Razorbacks (9-3) with 16 points, 10 rebounds and 4 blocked shots, but it was Embery-Simpson who keyed a decisive surge after Austin Peay took a 52-48 lead on Steve Harris' driving basket with 11:06 to play.
