“I was very happy with the win tonight,” said A-State head coach Mike Balado. “We did some great things and you always go into games talking about what you want to take away from teams in scouting. The No. 1 thing for us tonight was take away the three-pointer and I thought if we did that we would be in great shape.
They finished 1-for-17 so that’s a tribute to our guys listening to the scouting report and doing that well in the game. The other thing was we forced 26 turnovers and had 19 steals, which is excellent.
