CONWAY, Ark. (12/16/16) – Donte Thomas dished out a career high 13 assists, none bigger than an alley-oop to C.J. Foster that sparked a 21-4 run as Arkansas State men’s basketball left Central Arkansas with an 89-77 victory.

The victory improved the Red Wolves to 9-2 on the season, the best start by an A-State team since 2003-04. The win also marked the fourth non-conference road win, most in a single-season since the 1986-87 team had four such wins.

Devin Carter followed his record breaking 3-point outing with a game-high 20 points while Deven Simms equaled his career high with 19 points on 8-of-9 shooting.
