DOTHAN, Alabama – Troy set a school record with 27 steals as the Trojans rolled over Thomas University, 110-55, at the Dothan Civic Center on Monday.

Troy (2-1) led for all but 29 seconds of the contest against the NAIA side from Thomasville, Ga., and shot 44 percent (40-90) as a team taking the most shots since firing off 99 attempts at Georgia Southern on Feb. 19, 2015. Troy also scored 28 points from the free throw line in the game.
