Golden Rams scratched by archrival Wildcats

ALBANY, Ga.- Junior Michael Green scored all 15 of his points in the second half, but it wasn't enough to help the Albany State men's basketball team overcome an early deficit. ASU dropped an 87-65 decision to archrival Fort Valley State on its basketball homecoming.
 
With the loss, the Golden Rams drop their fourth straight game and fall to 10-16 overall and 5-11 in the SIAC. FVSU improves to 14-12, 11-5.
                              
With Khaliq Hughes sidelined with a season-ending injury and Green picking up his second foul in less than three minutes of play, Albany State had difficulty generating offense. Fort Valley State used both inside play and outside shooting to build a double digit lead. The Wildcats led 50-31 lead at halftime.
 
In the second half, Fort Valley State increased its lead to 22, 55-33, at the 18:48 mark. With 7:08 left in regulation, Jackson Lenyear made a layup to cut ASU's deficit to 69-59. However, the Wildcats pulled away once again and sent the home team to defeat.
 
Brandon Hudson scored 13 points to join Green in double figures. The Golden Rams shot 27-of-64 (42.2%) from the field, 4-of-18 (21.1%) from three-point range and 7-of-16 (43.8%) from the free throw line.
