Georgia State Tops Towson 73-65

This was a mature win.  It may sound strange but coming home and playing a team than you better than you should win, right?  It hasn't been that easy lately for the Panthers.

James 'Boom' Fields played an excellent all-around game off the bench.  6 points, 9 assists, 2 steals and only 2 turnovers.  Excellent work by the Junior out of Savannah.

Coach Rod Barnes went with a feeling to start James "Oak" Vincent and it paid instant dividends.  11 points (on 5-5 shooting) and 7 rebounds in 22 minutes.  He is proving that he can be a serviceable back up for Eric Buckner who was saddled with foul trouble all night.

Dante Curry did not shoot well and forced multiple 3 point attempts after hitting his first 2.  He finished with 12 points on 4-15 from the field.  The way he has been shooting the last few games, I can't fault Coach Barnes giving him the green light.
