Beverly Kelley’s 33 Not Enough as Troy Falls at SamfordMatt MaysBIRMINGHAM – Ashley Beverly Kelley scored 33 points, but it wasn't enough as Troy lost a back-and-forth game, 73-69, against Samford in the Pete Hanna Center on Tuesday night. Beverly Kelley was 11-of-17 from the floor, including a third-quarter, buzzer-beating layup after a steal that gave Troy a 45-43 entering the final quarter. However, Samford scored 30 points in the fourth quarter, including 14-of-16 from the free throw line. Troy (1-1) led by as many as 10 points in the third quarter, but Samford's Kassidy Blevins made all five of her 3-pointers in the games' final 12 minutes to get Samford ahead. The fifth came with 5:27 to go in the fourth and gave Samford a 54-51 lead it would never give up. Troy was within one possession with the ball three times in the final three minutes, but couldn't capitalize as Samford also hit 8-of-8 free throws in that stretch. ( Full Article)

Tough loss for our Trojans. Everyone needs to come out Sunday and support them at Trojan Arena.

I am not a conspiracy theorist, but the foul discrepancy was huge...

I am not a conspiracy theorist, but the foul discrepancy was huge... You and I both know that the home team usually gets more calls.

We agree on this. The home team got more calls. With our aggressive style of play, we are more likely to get fouls called on us
