Freshman can't help at the end

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- The good news for the University of Arkansas basketball team was that Desi Sills scored a career-high 18 points in Saturday's second-round NIT game against Indiana.

The bad news for the Razorbacks was that Sills -- a freshman guard from Jonesboro -- couldn't score in the final 4:25 as the Hoosiers held on to win 63-60 at Assembly Hall.

Sills fouled out with 4:25 left when he was called for a block as he tried to draw a charge from Indiana forward De'Ron Davis.

"I tried to be in the right position for my team and get the charge so we could get the ball back," Sills said.
