ASU men showing flair for the dramatic

MONTGOMERY, Alabama -- This season, the Alabama State Hornets have created a healthy buzz on campus by finishing strong.

Monday night, the Acadome was rocking as ASU's first-place showdown with Southern tipped off, but there was cold silence after the Hornets fell down by 17.

"We got off to a slow start and they kind of just pushed us around," Hornets coach Lewis Jackson said. "They got any shot that they wanted. Defensively, they really got into us."

Then, as the first half drew to a close, the Hornets showed signs of life.

Steve Rogers hit a 3-pointer, his only bucket of the game. After DeMarcus Robinson's steal and layup, the Hornets ended the first half with a Luther Page slam. A 17-point deficit had been cut to 10.
