Cowboys Shoot Lights Out, Down Longwood After Lengthy Delay

Not even a power outage could stop the Oklahoma State basketball team tonight. Granted, it was against 3-8 Longwood University, but Oklahoma State looked dominant against a weaker opponent for the first time this year.

The Cowboys raced out to a 15-0 lead and stretched it to 22-3 before the Lancers could catch their breath. Leyton Hammonds channeled his inner Phil Forte early on, knocking down his first four threes. Despite the hot start, OSU couldn’t put the nail in the coffin right then and there, as Longwood used a late run to cut the halftime deficit to 12.
