MONROE, La. – ULM might have had an easy night of it if not for Ronshad Shabazz.
Although ULM never found an answer to Shabazz's incredible shooting display on Thursday night, the Warhawks were able to deliver an 81-75 win over Appalachian State at Fant-Ewing Coliseum.
"It's a great win," ULM coach Keith Richard said. "That's what I just told the team. At this time of the year, all of the wins are great wins if you can get one."
The Warhawks (15-12, 8-7 in the Sun Belt Conference) survived a 47-point onslaught by Shabazz, whose shooting single-handedly kept the Mountaineers (9-19, 4-11) in the game until the final minutes.
