Southern hold off UAPB to stay unbeaten in SWAC

PINE BLUFF, Arkansas The Southern men’s basketball team remained undefeated in Southwestern Athletic Conference play with a 60-56 victory against Arkansas-Pine Bluff on Saturday night at H.O. Clemmons Arena.

The Jaguars, 9-9 and 5-0, play at Mississippi Valley State on Wednesday in a game postponed two days because of a bomb threat against the Delta Devils’ campus and arena.

Arkansas-Pine Bluff falls to 4-12 and 2-2.

Southern was playing its first game without starting point guard Christopher Hyder, who is sidelined indefinitely because of a blood clot in his left shoulder.

Trelun Banks moved from shooting guard to point guard and finished with seven points, five assists and one rebound in 25 minutes.
