APSU Men’s Basketball hosts Belmont Bruins SaturdayAustin Peay (6-11/1-2) vs. Belmont (10-7/2-2)Saturday, January 17th, 2015 | 7:30pm
That win snapped a three-game Governors losing streak and provided them their first OVC victory, improving to 1-2 in conference play.
Williams finished with 13 points in only 10 minutes while Chris Horton narrowly missed a double-double with 14 points and nine rebounds. After being charged with a season-high 21 turnovers at Tennessee Tech, the Governors bounced back to commit a season-low 10 against Tennessee State. But the Govs shooting woes continued to crop up against TSU. A 1-of-9 shooting drought saw a two-point Govs lead become a 11-point second-half deficit, necessitating the comeback.
Craig Bradshaw, a preseason All-OVC pick, is the OVC’s leading scorer at 19.4 points per game while forward Evan Bradds comes in at 13.8 ppg and sophomore guard Taylor Barnette, a Virginia transfer, is averaging 11.3 ppg. Bruins head coach Rick Byrd, now in his 34th head-coaching season, is seeking his 700th career win against the Governors. The Series
The Governors hold a 30-12 lead in the series, but the Bruins have won the last five meetings, including a 93-68 decision, February 8th, 2014, in Nashville, TN.
