The future is still bright for the team.\u201d<\/p>\n Coach Wayne Brent feels good about his team. <\/p>\n \u201cI feel pretty good in spots. In the last four minutes, I didn\u2019t think we executed well. We missed a couple of free throws. We got to go back and try to work on executing in the half court sets at the end of games. We got to make free throws count,\u201d said Brent.<\/p>\n In the first half JSU shot 44.1% (15-34) from the field and Arkansas State connected at a 44.8% rate (13-29).
