Pearson’s ‘never-know’ shot catapults Bobcats past Arkansas State

Nijal Pearson made his ‘never-know’ shot on Saturday. 

Texas State’s junior guard raced up the court with precious seconds ticking away and threw up a 3-point heave from about 30 feet out. 

It felt good coming off his hands and he hit his follow through motion. Pearson didn’t expect to make it but it banked off the glass and through at the halftime buzzer to tie the Bobcats’ game against Arkansas State at 32-32.
