Welcome back, Pat Birt, and welcome to a potentially standout career, Lawson Korita.
Korita and Birt’s long-range bombing of a combined seven out of 11 from behind the arc, along with the floor leadership of point guard Sterling Taplin, took away visions of upset that were dancing around in the heads of the visiting Texas State Bobcats.
Taplin had a team-high 13 points, while Korita and Birt had 12 and 11 points, respectively, as Tulsa defeated Texas State 74-59 on Saturday night in front of an announced crowd of 3,990 at the Reynolds Center.
