Southern Nazarene Falls in Tough Battle Against Arkansas Tech

SNU stays close early but struggles with scoring droughts, falling 63-55 at the Sawyer Center

BETHANY, Okla. - Southern Nazarene battled throughout the afternoon but came up short on Saturday, falling 63-55 to Arkansas Tech inside the Sawyer Center.

The Crimson Storm (4-8, 4-4 GAC) stayed close early, trailing the Golden Suns (10-2, 6-2 GAC) 15-10 after the first quarter, and continued to fight through the second. SNU tried to build momentum in the second half, but scoring droughts and tough shooting stretches made it hard to close the gap late.

Jordan Hoffman led Southern Nazarene with 15 points, knocking down a pair of three-pointers and adding solid production at the free-throw line. Boston Berry followed with 12 points, providing a spark offensively. 

SNU struggled to find consistency shooting the ball, finishing 24.2 percent from the field and 25.9 percent from three-point range, but the Storm continued to compete defensively and on the glass. Southern Nazarene also went 16-of-24 from the free-throw line, keeping the game close into the fourth quarter.

Despite multiple pushes in the second half, the Storm were unable to string together enough stops and baskets down the stretch, as Arkansas Tech maintained control in the final minutes to secure the 63-55 win.
