Aces leave it all on the floor against Murray State

MURRAY, Ky. – K.J. Riley posted the first double-double of his career but a basket with 0.6 remaining by Ja Morant gave Murray State a 66-64 victory over the University of Evansville men's basketball team on Tuesday evening inside the CFSB Center.

"Our guys played well tonight, we played well enough to win the game. Give credit to Murray State; they made big plays down the stretch," Aces head coach Walter McCarty said. "We grew up; our guys played their tails off. We wanted to control the pace. I told our guys to enjoy the moment.
