The men’s basketball team (7-11, 3-2) secured its third straight victory against Arkansas State University on Thursday at College Park Center.
Head coach Chris Ogden said he was glad to be back home after the team’s two-game road stand against Appalachian State University and Coastal Carolina University.
“It feels good to have a home crowd and a good energy in the building,” Ogden said. “We’ve been on the road so much this year, it just feels good to get back and sleep in your own bed and see people you know.”
The Mavericks had to overcome a slow start as they shot 0-6 from the field in the game’s opening minutes.
