Texas Southern's Thomas secures a double-double in 71-59 win over Lamar

HOUSTON, Texas -- The Texas Southern Tigers defeated Lamar 71-59 on Friday in a game in which TSU played well on both sides of the ball.

Chris Thomas erupted for 23 points and 10 rebounds to help lead the Tigers to their first win of the season.

Malcolm Riley added 15 points and four rebounds as Texas Southern played dominate basketball for the majority of the contest.

"We did a good job of moving the basketball and getting stops when we had to have them," said TSU head coach Mike Davis. "Offensively I thought we started off slow but we got things going as the game progressed."

Texas Southern will face Baylor on Dec. 1 in Waco, Texas.
