After a rocky first half, the Bisons turned things around in the second half — taking a solid win over the Trevecca Trojans 96-72.
This is the team’s first home win since the home opener against Rhodes on November 5th.
Last week after the Bisons’ loss, Coach Acuff said, “I promise you, we get to January, we’re gonna be a tough battle.”
This win is just one step to that “tough-battle” team coming in January.
Ahsan Asadullah was a star player in tonight’s game. With 21 points, a career-high 8 assists and 6 rebounds. Asadullah shot 11-15 from the field.
KJ Johnson also scored 21 points, 17 of which were in the second half.
Michael Buckland and Greg Jones each shot 15 points as well.
The Bisons only shot 50 percent from the field in the first half, allowing the Trojans to gain a 46-44 lead going into the second half.
The Bisons came back ready for battle and shot 68.8 percent from the field. This win improves the Bisons record to 4-6 on the year.
Despite the rough start and a small crowd, due to finals and Christmas break, the Bisons still pulled out a win before they enter their longest stretch of the season without a game.
After what is hopefully a confidence-boosting win, the Bisons will return to Allen Arena Dec. 17 against Tennessee Tech at 6:30 pm.
