The Arkansas State University men's basketball team manhandled the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in the first half of Friday night's 73-62 victory over the Trojans at First National Bank Arena in Jonesboro.
The Red Wolves shot 53.8% (14 of 26) from the field in the first half and dominated UALR inside, outrebounding the Trojans 18-11 and limiting the interior duo of Ruot Monyyong and Nikola Maric to a combined six points and three rebounds before the break.
While the frazzled Trojans made only nine of 24 first-half field goals, ASU got 17 points from its bench alone on 7-of-9 shooting, tying together a rousing first-half effort that set the foundation for the Red Wolves' most comprehensive win of the season.
