Georgia State returned home Wednesday to face UMass after an impressive win against a dominant Middle Tennessee team. Unfortunately, several Panthers’ players, including head coach Ron Hunter, were battling flu-like symptoms and were unable to continue their win streak, as they fell short against the Minutemen 74-65. This loss is number five for Georgia State at home since the beginning of the 2013-14 season.
“We had a few guys who we probably should not have played today because they were battling the flu, but they fought and gave us everything they had. With that said, UMass played well, and they deserved the win.
