ASU rides hot shooting of Jaelen House, Alonzo Verge in Texas Southern win

Jaelen House and Alonzo Verge Jr., were doing everything pretty well in the first 12 games this season, aside from making 3-pointers.

On Saturday, both got hot from behind the arc, helping Arizona State close the non-conference part of its schedule with a 98-81 win over Texas Southern at Desert Financial Arena.

House, a freshman from Phoenix Shadow Mountain, came into the game making 8 of 31 3-pointers. Verge, a junior-college transfer, was only 5 of 30 from beyond the arc.

Nobody would have known that the way they knocked down shots on Saturday.

House was 5-for-7 shooting 3s and finished with 20 points.
