JONESBORO, Ark. (12/31/17) – The Arkansas State women’s basketball team erased a 10-point deficit, but could not hold onto the lead late in the game as the Red Wolves fell to Louisiana 77-75 Sunday afternoon at First National Bank Arena.
A-State (6-7, 1-1 SBC) trailed for most of the afternoon, but rallied to take its first lead with 5:45 left after a jumper by Payton Tennison. The Red Wolves failed to extend the lead, however, and allowed the Ragin’ Cajuns (6-8, 1-1) to go on a 7-0 run to help close out the game. Tennison knocked down a 3-pointer with two seconds left to get within two, but time expired before A-State could foul on the inbounds play.
