SAN MARCOS, Texas -- R.J. Hunter scored 17 points and Georgia State beat Texas State 53-41 on Saturday despite being without the Sun Belt Conference's leading scorer, Ryan Harrow.

Texas State (11-13, 5-10) finished with just 12 total field goals (29.3 percent), the fourth straight opponent Georgia State has held below 30 percent shooting.

The Panthers opened on a 14-5 run and never trailed in the game, extending their lead to as many as 15 in the second half.

Emani Gant had 13 points to lead the Bobcats.
