A-State Tops Lyon in Exhibition Contest

Set to play their season opener Saturday at Indiana, the Red Wolves concluded their preseason schedule with a 2-0 record after also picking up an 83-52 win against Arkansas-Monticello last Thursday. A-State now holds a 26-0 record in exhibition games since the 2005-06 season.

Thirteen A-State players saw action against the Scots, including 10 who registered at least nine minutes of playing time. The squad got 27 points from its bench, led by sophomore guard Payton Tennison and freshman forward Peyton Martin with eight each.

“It was a good exhibition game for us and we knew the one thing coming in is that they shoot it really well and unlike last week if you make a mistake, this team will make you pay,” A-State head coach Brian Boyer said.
