The Redhawks won the season’s first meeting between the two teams, a 75-64 decision in Clarksville, January 4th. Austin Peay shot just 25 percent in the final 16 minutes of that contest. Tiasha Gray led APSU with a 16-point, seven-rebound, six-assist effort. Jordan Hunter paced the Redhawks with 19 points.
