MONTGOMERY, Alabama -- Alabama State junior Jamel Waters finished with a game-high 14 points and dished out four assists as the Hornets got an 84-60 win over Alcorn State on Saturday at the Acadome.
The Hornets (10-5, 6-0 SWAC) are off to their best conference start since the 2002-03 season, when the Hornets won their first seven conference games.
Alabama State, known for slow shooting starts this season, shot 45.7 percent from the field in building a 43-26 halftime lead. ASU ended the first half on a 12-2 run.
“It’s really important for us to play a complete game,” Waters said. “We know we play good defense. It was good to keep the pressure on them and off of us.”
Alabama State head coach Lewis Jackson said his team has been trying to get the offense going early.
