JONESBORO, Ark. (12/4/20) – A 10-point halftime deficit proved to be too much as Arkansas-Pine Bluff defeated the Arkansas State men's basketball team 75-74 Wednesday at First National Bank Arena.
Norchad Omier posted his second-straight double-double with 21 points and 19 rebounds to lead A-State (1-4), the first freshman in program history to post a 20-point double-double effort. Christian Willis was a perfect 3-for-3 beyond the arc and finished with 16 points and seven rebounds while Caleb Fields and Marquis Eaton finished with 11 points each. Antwon Jackson had a career-high 11 points and eight rebounds off the bench.
