PREVIEW: Lady Cougs To Host Jackson State Saturday

PREVIEW: Lady Cougs To Host Jackson State Saturday
December 6, 2019

Women's Basketball looks to bounce back from a heartbreaking loss on Saturday as they return home to host Jackson State. Tip-off is scheduled for 2:00 ET.

The Lady Cougars (4-5, 3-1 TCCAA) came close to knocking off Walters State, who has won 49 straight TCCAA games, in overtime in Morristown in their last game on Wednesday. Jackson State has yet to lose a contest this season, posting a 9-0 overall record and a 4-0 TCCAA record. They last played on Wednesday, when they defeated Southwest Tennessee 78-75 at home.

Since 2010, Cleveland State holds a strong upper-hand in the series with the Green Jays. They are 12-6 in this span. Since 2017, the two teams have played to a 2-2 split. 

The Lady Cougars will hope to continue to get a high amount of offensive production from Asjah Harrell. Harrell has posted double-digit points in six straight games, including scoring 31 points in Wednesday's game. Britnay Gore has had a double-double in three straight games and will look to continue that trend as well.

After this game, Cleveland State will travel to Lookout Mountain, Ga. for a matchup with Covenant College JV on Wednesday. Gametime is set for 7:00 ET.
