App State Men’s Basketball kicked off their 2016-17 season campaign beating Methodist University 103-58 in their lone exhibition game.

Getting off to a slow start tied with Methodist 10-10 five minutes into the game, it was a sloppy first half for both teams, with 17 total turnovers between the two programs and nobody showing signs of pulling away, the Mountaineers were able to pull away after a few adjustments and eclipse the 100-point mark to blow out Methodist.

Each team went on multiple scoring droughts in the first half in what was a low scoring affair for the majority of the time, with the App lead sitting at 17 points heading into the locker room.
