HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – Josh Anderson had a grin on his face from the moment he first stepped onto the Cam Henderson Center floor Saturday night.

After 20 minutes of his first basketball game since last April, the Western Kentucky guard had a different reaction.

“I (got tired), I’m not going to lie,” Anderson said. “Actually, at halftime I threw up. I threw up, so yeah, I was fatigued.”

Anderson threw up at halftime, but threw down in his college debut. The Hilltopper freshman scored 16 points – climbing up for a pair of impressive slam dunks – in WKU’s 112-87 win at Marshall.
