Oklahoma State aims to keep eye on ball vs. Oral Roberts

Related Topics: Oklahoma State Athletics

A lack of scoring depth and shoddy ball security can put any team in peril, no matter the opponent. Just ask Oklahoma State. After surviving a scare from Tarleton State on Wednesday night, the Cowboys know they must accelerate their focus and execution on Sunday when in-state foe Oral Roberts visits Stillwater. Marchelus Avery will look to be a building block for Oklahoma State (7-3) after notching his first double-double of the season. Avery contributed 18 points and 10 rebounds against Tarleton State, providing a steady hand in the second half as the Cowboys turned a 12-point deficit late in the first half into a 66-61 victory.
