ARLINGTON, Texas. (2/26/21) – A three-pointer and foul in the final second helped UT Arlington deal the Arkansas State men's basketball team a heartbreaking 73-71 defeat Friday at the College Park Center.
After Marquis Eaton completed a three-point play with seven seconds remaining, UT Arlington inbounded the ball and Shahada Wells found David Azore on the left wing for the go-ahead 3-pointer with 1.1 showing on the clock. A foul was whistled against A-State on the play and Azore drained the free throw giving the Mavericks the 2-point advantage. A-State attempted a potential game-tying or go-ahead play, but the inbounds play was unsuccessful resulting in the final score.
