Meanwhile, for Texas Southern, junior guard Adriana Avent led all scorers with 21 points followed by Taniya Lawson with 13 points and six rebounds.

After what was a close first quarter, Jackson State swung the momentum completely in their favor in the second quarter outscoring Texas Southern 24-7.

Jackson State’s Jariyah Covington had the hot hand in the first half scoring all her 11 points in the period, including three three-point baskets.

Texas Southern, on the other hand, struggled with their shot in the first half converting just 7-of-33 shot attempts.

Another common denominator in the win for Jackson State was their ability to score off turnovers converting 31 points off takeaways compared to just six points for Texas Southern.

Jackson State improved to 4-1 in the conference (7-8 overall) with the win. They now sit in a four-way tie for first place in the SWAC along with Southern, Prairie View A&M, and Alabama A&M.

With this loss, Texas Southern drops to 1-5 in the conference and 1-15 overall, their worst start since the 2011-2012 season.
