BATON ROUGE, Louisiana -- The Southern men’s basketball team has won the Southwestern Athletic Conference regular-season championship with two games remaining.The Jaguars know that in order to add a SWAC Tournament title to their trophy case, they need to continue to hone the edge they’ve had down the stretch. They play Prairie View (8-20, 6-10) at approximately 8 p.m. Thursday, then host Texas Southern on Saturday before heading to Houston next week for the conference tourney.
“As a basketball team,” Southern coach Roman Banks said, “any time you step on the court, you want to win every game no matter what.”
The Jaguars (18-11, 16-2) have won nine of their last 10 games, including their last four. Those last four victories have come by an average margin of more than 13 points. They won at Alcorn State 67-54 last Saturday and at Alabama State 87-64 five days before that.
