The Cowboys use a literal power surge to defeat Longwood

Oklahoma State forward Leyton Hammonds looks for a pass during a game against Southeastern Louisiana in Gallagher-Iba Arena in Stillwater on Nov. 14, 2014. Hammonds led the team tonight against Longwood with 22 points, had 5 rebounds and 1 steal.

Gallagher-Iba Arena went dark Tuesday night during Oklahoma States’ 73-55 win against Longwood (Virginia) for about 42 minutes. With 11:09 left in the second half, point guard Jawun Evans jumped to shoot a 3-pointer when everything went black.

The dimmed auxiliary lights came back on for about three minutes until they flickered on and off as if they were a strobe light in a night club until they went dark for another eight minutes, and time began to approach 11 p.
