Starks: Last season the point guard made shots from all angles including 41 percent from beyond the arc. Over the last four games this season, the ball rarely found the net for the confident scorer whether challenged defensively or wide open. Against Lipscomb, Starks went 2 for 13 and missed six of eight 3-point attempts. The previous season's version returned against High Point as Starks sank 8 of 11 attempts including 2 of 4 on 3-point tries. "The ball just went in," Starks said. "I really honestly couldn't tell you. I've been getting up extra reps. Before the ball just wasn't going in, but tonight obviously it went in."
