KATY -- Like the stars that they are, Texas State seniors Tony Bishop’s and Ryan White’s performances get better as the spotlight and stage grow.
Wednesday night in the quarterfinals of the Southland Conference Tournament, Bishop and White carried the Bobcats like they had throughout league play.
Bishop and White combined for 44 of Texas State’s 72 points in a 72-68 victory against Southeastern Louisiana. With the win, the Bobcats advanced to their first semifinal since 2003.
“These two guys next to me,” Texas State head coach Doug Davalos said during the post-game press conference, pointing at Bishop and White, “have two of the biggest hearts in the country. There’s not anybody else that I’d say have bigger hearts than these two guys.
“Whether it be laying out on the floor, trying to dive for a loose ball or battling against bigger or thicker guys every game, these guys give it their all and you saw what Ryan did tonight.”
