The Rebels skated to an easy 71-43 win against the Arkansas State Red Wolves Friday night after pulling away early and never looking back.
Arkansas State is bad, having gone 13-19 last season. They’re better competition than Mississippi College was in the exhibition, but it’s still hard to glean too much from this one. Still, a lot of players who are jockeying for playing time in their first season on campus say time. Overall it was mostly a struggle, as no newcomers jumped out as a major contributor.
Sy, who started at center, wasn’t magnificent, going 3-for-6 with just four rebounds in 20 minutes.
