Men’s Hoops Hosts Nation’s Top Defense in Little Rock on Saturday

TROY, Alabama – After dropping a tough decision in its Sun Belt opener, the Troy men's basketball team will look to rebound on Saturday when it plays host to Little Rock in Trojan Arena at 4:15 p.m. in the second game of a doubleheader with the Troy women.

Troy (5-7, 0-1) led by 12 near the midway mark of the second half in Wednesday's contest against Arkansas State, but the Trojans couldn't close out the game and eventually lost by three, 84-81. Free throws were a key factor in the game as Troy converted just 26-of-40 opportunities from the charity stripe.
