GAME NOTES
- Alabama State is playing their fourth game at home this season, having won the first three. The game concludes a three-game homestand before the Hornets hit the road to Dayton next week.
- The Hornets and North Alabama met six times between 1978-1981 but have not met since. They were scheduled to play last year before COVID-19 forced Alabama State to opt out of non-conference play.
- Gerald Liddell (Cibolo, Texas) leads Alabama State in scoring at 11.0 points per game, while Trace Young (Owensboro, Ky.) has missed the last two games but is averaging 10.8 points per game.
- McCray is averaging 9.8 points per game in just 12.3 minutes per game thus far this season.
- The game against the Lions is the third game this season against a team from the state of Alabama (Mobile and Tuskegee) – with all three games at home. The Hornets will face Samford at home in mid-December, and then play Alabama A&M twice giving them seven games against in-state competition.
- Alabama State is shooting 45.4 (159-350) percent so far this season from the floor, while also shooting 34.5 (41-of-119) percent from beyond the arc.
