Simms' layup gives Arkansas State late lead to beat Troy
After his layup Simms quickly stole the ball from Daniel Peace, drawing the foul. Simms made both free throws for an 81-78 lead with 51 seconds left.
Troy's Jeremy Hollimon made two free throws to close to 81-80.
Troy had two chances to retake the lead but Peace missed a layup and Wesley Person's heave from three-quarter court as time expired was a little too high. The ball was on line but bounced off the backboard to the floor.
Devin Carter led Arkansas State (13-6, 4-2 Sun Belt Conference) with 23 points, nailing 6 of 9 from distance. Tamas Bruce had 19 points and Simms added 17 with two steals.
Jordon Varnado led Troy (10-10, 2-4) with 18 points.
