The men’s basketball team (8-11, 4-2) was able to claim its fourth straight victory after defeating the University of Arkansas at Little Rock by a score of 82-73 on Saturday at College Park Center.
Head coach Chris Ogden said the win was important for the team as the Mavericks wanted to make home court count before getting back on the road.
“We’ve already given a few away here in our arena,” Ogden said. “We want to be a part of the fight, and to do that you’ve got to protect home.”
Junior guard Edric Dennis built off the momentum he created in Thursday night’s matchup where he scored a season-high 25 points.
