REDDIES REPORT
- The Reddies (2-2) had their hearts broken on Saturday at Arkansas-Fort Smith. After Alvin Miles gave HSU an 80-78 lead with 10 seconds remaining in overtime, UAFS nailed a 3-pointer at the buzzer off of an offensive rebound to win it, 81-80. It was the second overtime contest in just four games for Henderson, who is now 1-1 in such games.

- As a team, the Reddies are shooting 43.6% from the floor and 37.9% from the 3-point line. HSU has turned the ball over 15 fewer times than its opponents and carries a turnover margin of +3.8. Defensively, Henderson has locked down the arc for its opponents, who are shooting just 27.7% (28-for-101) collectively against the Reddies.
