For the first time since 2018, the men’s basketball team (13-15, 9-8) picked up a victory over Georgia State University.

Despite being down by double-digits early, the Mavericks bounced back late and defeated the Panthers by a score of 70-62. Head coach Chris Ogden said his team showed a lot of grit to come back and secure an important conference win.
