The Racers (3-0) showcased their depth and efficiency, with Domon leading the charge by scoring 29 points while also contributing five rebounds and five assists.

Supporting Domon’s stellar outing, Brayden Shorter provided crucial firepower off the bench, scoring 19 points on efficient shooting, including seven of 14 from the field and five of 11 from three-point range. Christian Jones added eight points, hitting two of his five three-point attempts, further stretching the floor and keeping Alcorn State’s defense honest.
