A 23-point afternoon by junior guard Caleb Asberry led Texas State to a sweep of Little Rock as the Bobcats defeated the Trojans on Saturday, 67-56.
Texas State redshirt senior guard Marlin Davis and Trojans junior guard Markquis Nowell were both held out of Saturday’s game after throwing punches during an altercation on Friday. But the Bobcats (9-4, 3-1 Sun Belt) got a big lift by the insertion of senior guard Shelby Adams into the lineup after he missed Friday’s contest.
Adams scored 10 points in the opening nine minutes of the first half, eight of them coming in the paint. Adams’ outburst helped the visitors establish a 20-16 lead with 11:35 left in the period.
