JACKSON, Mississippi -- Robert Braddy Field was calm.There was no chalk marking the baselines. The dirt wasn’t groomed.
A few Jackson State baseball players were around but didn’t step on the field that they are responsible for maintaining.
Instead, this was their time to soak in the Southwestern Athletic Conference championship they won on Sunday by defeating Alabama State 9-8.
“It’ll take a while for it to sink in,” senior utility player Aneko Knowles said.
The pace has slowed for the Tigers, considerably.
With Sunday’s victory, the Tigers were awarded an automatic bid to an NCAA regional, which won’t begin for another two weeks.
