OSU Hoops: Cowboys Pull Away From Central Arkansas For 2-0 Start

Phil Forte scored 31 points and Jawun Evans contributed 23 points, five rebounds and eight steals to lead Oklahoma State to a 102-90 victory over Central Arkansas on Monday.

Jeffrey Carroll provided a spark off the bench once again for Oklahoma State (2-0), scoring 20 points and grabbing a game-high 11 rebounds after notching 22 and nine in the Cowboys' season-opening 102-65 win over Campbell on Friday.

Forte, a sixth-year senior, fell one point shy of his career high. He finished fourth in the Big 12 in scoring in 2014-15 before he missed all but the first three games of last year with an elbow injury.

Jordan Howard scored 28 points for Central Arkansas (0-2), while Mathieu Kamba contributed 19 points and 10 rebounds.
