EVANSVILLE, Ind. – In a defensive standoff at the Ford Center, the University of Evansville men's basketball team dropped a 55-50 decision to Jacksonville State on Saturday afternoon.
Evansville (5-5) shot 30.8% on the day while Jacksonville State (6-4) was slightly higher at 35.0%.
"I thought we got a lot of good looks at the basket, but we did not play the way we normally play with pace and moving the basketball," Aces head coach Walter McCarty said. "We were out of character tonight as far as our principles. We gave them too many easy baskets in transition; our team just was not who we usually are.
