SUN BELT MEN
Arkansas State 67, Texas State 60
A 14-2 run spanning the first and second halves gave the Red Wolves enough of a cushion to hold off the Bobcats at First National Bank Arena in Jonesboro.
Texas State (12-5, 3-2 Sun Belt Conference) got as close as three points and closed to 62-58 with 1:19 remaining, but a Norchad Omier dunk and Avery Felts layup in the final minute secured the win for ASU (13-4, 4-1), pushing the Red Wolves to their best start since 1988-89.
Omier finished with 23 points and 13 rebounds, giving him seven straight double-double outings — a feat not accomplished by an ASU player since the 1993-94 season.
