Brett Freeman dropped 21 points as Tarleton State absolutely rolled over Texas-Dallas, finishing 76-57 on Tuesday night. This early season win showed off some serious offensive firepower from the Texans, and you gotta feel good about that kind of performance.
Texans Dominate Early Season Clash
The Texans, now sitting at a solid 2-1, showed serious firepower against Texas-Dallas. Freeman was lights out, hitting 7 of his 14 shots from the field. He was dialed in from deep too, sinking 3-for-6 from beyond the arc, plus going 4-for-5 from the free-throw line. But he wasn’t alone carrying the load, not even close. Leroy Kelly IV was a beast, putting up 16 points, grabbing 12 boards, and snagging three steals. Talk about making an impact everywhere! And Josh Hayes? He chipped in 14 points, going 4-for-7 from the field and 6-for-10 from the line, while also pulling down a huge 12 rebounds. That’s a triple threat right there, and it shows this team isn’t messing around.
Comets Fought Hard, But Couldn’t Keep Up
Texas-Dallas had some guys making noise, for sure. Tyson Heard led their scoring with 12 points, and Jacob Smithey added eight. Jordan Balderaz was hustling, finishing with seven points, six rebounds, and three steals. But even with that effort, the Comets just couldn’t slow down the Texans’ offense, especially with guys like Freeman, Kelly IV, and Hayes all stepping up big.
What’s next for Tarleton State? They’re back on their home court this Friday, hosting Alcorn State. You gotta believe they’re looking to keep this momentum rolling and build on that strong 2-1 start.
