Little Rock Falls to Texas State

SAN MARCOS, Texas – Carol Barbosa registered her seventh career double-double and five different Trojans recorded a block but Little Rock dropped a 3-0 decision at Texas State Friday evening.
 
Barbosa's 10 kills and 12 digs marked her seventh career double-double – all coming in her senior season.
 
Despite the loss, Little Rock (6-19, 4-9 Sun Belt) still remains alive for one of eight spots in the Sun Belt Tournament. Meanwhile Texas State (20-8, 12-2) cuts its magic number to one for the regular season title.
