Austin, Texas-The Eagles upset bid against Concordia University Texas came up short as the Tornados owned the final ten minutes of the game to earn a 95-84 win Thursday in American Southwest Conference play.

Ozarks (4-7, 2-6 ASC) trailed 40-31 at the half, but put up a better effort in the second half to gain a 43-42 advantage behind Josh Ferrell's three-pointer at the 17:32 mark. It would be Ozarks only lead of the half despite climbing within one point on a pair of occasions. The latter came with 10:57 left in the game after Ricky Allen hit two free throws. Concordia (9-3, 6-3 ASC) then reeled off a 12-0 run over the next two minutes to establish a double-digit lead. From that point, the Tornados maintained a big lead the Eagles couldn't overcome.
