Joe Foley insists that he didn’t change his UALR women’s basketball team’s offensive approach earlier this season to compete with Troy.
“This was to make us better,” Foley said. “We had to create some easy baskets.”
But the improvement certainly helps with the highscoring defending Sun Belt Conference Tournament champions visiting the Jack Stephens Center tonight.
UALR (11-6, 5-0) and Troy (12-4, 5-0) will meet for sole possession of first place in the Sun Belt at 6:30 p.m. It also will be the first time the two have played since last year’s Sun Belt Tournament final, won 61-60 by Troy in New Orleans.
