What to Know
The Troy Trojans and the Little Rock Trojans are set to clash at 3 p.m. ET March 5 at Pensacola Bay Center in the second round of the Sun Belt Conference Tourney. Little Rock should still be riding high after a victory, while Troy will be looking to right the ship.
Troy was within striking distance but couldn’t close the gap last week as they fell 66-61 to the Texas State-San Marcos Bobcats.
Meanwhile, the South Alabama Jaguars typically have all the answers at home, but on Thursday Little Rock proved too difficult a challenge. Little Rock sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 75-71 win. They got double-digit scores from four players: Jordan Jefferson (24), CJ White (14), Myron Gardner (12), and Nikola Maric (11).
Troy’s defeat took them down to 19-10 while Little Rock’s win pulled them up to 9-18. On Thursday Little Rock relied heavily on Jordan Jefferson, who shot 8-for-9 from beyond the arc and finished with 24 points. It will be up to Troy’s defense to limit his damage on Saturday.
