ARKADELPHIA, Ark. — Henderson State will look to duplicate last season's success against Arkansas Tech when the Reddies face the Wonder Boys on Saturday at 3 p.m. in Russellville, Arkansas.

REDDIES REPORT
- Henderson State (4-2, 0-1) is looking to get back on track after a tough loss in its GAC opener on Thursday night to Southern Arkansas in Magnolia.

Outside of Parker and Rogers, the rest of the team was 13-for-44 from the field against the Muleriders (22.8 percent).
