With some late-game heroics from senior guard Tyreke Key, No. 4-seeded Indiana State University defeated No. 5-seeded University of Evansville 53-43 in the quarterfinals of the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) Tournament March 5. Key finished with 19 points — including the final seven points in the game to seal the win for the Sycamores — and nine rebounds.
Evansville’s Shamar Givance scored a layup to bring the Purple Aces within three points of Indiana State with 5:54 left in the game. From that point on, Key was the only player on either team to put the ball through the hoop.
