BATON ROUGE, Louisiana -- Southern followed its lowest point total in a conference game this season with one of its highest.
The Jaguars bounced back from a 62-52 home loss to Jackson State on Monday by beating Arkansas-Pine Bluff 74-56 on Saturday night in the H.O. Clemmons Arena. They scored their second-most points in a Southwestern Athletic Conference game this season.
Southern beat Mississippi Valley State, which it visits Monday, 79-55 on Jan. 19. The Jaguars improved to 9-3 and 12-14 overall. The Golden Lions are 5-7 and 8-18.
“We showed great effort tonight,” Southern coach Roman Banks said. “I’m really proud of how we responded. There’s no question we were disappointed with the way we played in our last game, but I think that made us focus better and we played with a much more consistent effort.”
