The Eagles have now jumped to seventh in the Sun Belt, while only being one game behind multiple teams for third place in the conference. They have been led by sophomore Mike Hughes, as well as freshmen Tookie Brown and Ike Smith, putting up a string of great performances to ignite the team.
Hughes, Brown and Smith have averaged 20.6, 22.6 and 12 points per game in their three game winning streak respectively. One stat that has been consistent in the Eagles success has been their second half scoring differential. The Eagles have outscored their opponents 124-103 in the second half, with Texas State being the only team to outscore them in the second half by two points.
