ARLINGTON, Texas. – Troy trailed by just two with five minutes left to play, but that was as close as it would get as UT Arlington went on a late run to claim an 86-76 victory on Thursday night.

After two free throws by Jordon Varnado got it down to two, the Mavericks (10-6, 1-2) went on a 6-0 run in just 1:24 to push the lead to 74-66 before the media timeout. The Trojans (7-9, 1-2) had little response in the closing minutes as the only point scored from the 4:59 mark until 1:51 remained was a free throw by Wesley Person.
