PENSACOLA, Fla. (3/6/21) – Norchad Omier collected his second double-double in as many days, but it was not quite enough as Georgia State held off Arkansas State men's basketball for a 71-68 win in the Sun Belt Conference Tournament quarterfinals Saturday night at the Pensacola Bay Center.
Omier scored 16 points and collected 18 rebounds to lead the Red Wolves (11-13), who held a four-point lead with two minutes to go, but the East No. 1 seed Panthers (15-5) scored seven straight to close out the contest and advance to the tournament semifinals. The performance was the freshman's 15th of the season.
