The Pirates travel north to Morrow, Georgia after having their season-high three-game win streak snapped at No. 22 Columbus (1/4). In that game, a late three-pointer went off the mark as the Cougars secured a 78-75 victory.
ASU lost their first four games of the season, falling to Anderson (81-69 on 11/14), Queens (83-82 on 11/15), Hope International (80-78 on 11/23) and Arizona Christian (91-73 on 11/24) before defeating Brewton Parker 97-68 on December 5. Following road losses at Lynn and Young Harris, they downed North Georgia 77-73 (12/19), Truett-McConnell 84-60 (12/30) and USC Aiken 75-60 for their three-game stretch.
The Lakers, meanwhile, come into the game having knocked off defending Peach Belt Conference champion Montevallo (1/4) in their last outing. A Sweet 16 participant a year ago, the Falcons could not recover from a 67-61 deficit in the final minute as Clayton State notched an impressive 72-67 victory.
