Azariah Seay has been scoring in bunches lately for UT Permian Basin Men's Basketball and that trend continued on Saturday against Texas A&M - Kingsville.  The senior dropped 19 points off the bench and was a perfect 9-for-9 from the free throw line.  The Falcons didn't miss from the charity stripe on Saturday, finishing 19-of-19 for the game including 17-of-17 in the second half.

A pair of three-pointers pushed the Javelinas out in front by six early in the game.  The Falcons responded with a 10-0 run to take the lead including threes by Jalen King and Keyon Craddock.  From there the first half was a slugfest with both sides unable to gain momentum.  A basket by King pushed the lead to five and after the visitors answered, Max Warren's bucket put it back to a five-point advantage.  A 10-0 run by the Javelinas swung things the other way late in the half, but King's basket at the end of the half made it 29-26 in favor of the visitors.

The Javelinas pushed the lead to six again early in the half before the Falcons responded.  Craddock knocked down a three and Seay followed with a three-point play to tie it at 38.  Moments later the Falcons pushed the lead to three on a pair of free throws by DaJuan Jones.  From there the offense went quiet and was outscored down the stretch and eventually fell 73-63.

King added 11 points to the effort.  Jones had a team-high six rebounds.

The Falcons are on the road next week for a pair of Lone Star Conference contests.  They open the week against Oklahoma Christian on Thursday.  Download the UTPB Athletics App to follow the team all season long.
