BATON ROUGE, Louisiana -- The Southern women lost four players during a scuffle early in the second half, but still had enough firepower to rout Alabama A&M 84-53 on Saturday afternoon in the F.G. Clark Activity Center.Starting forward Briana Green went to the bench for more than 10 minutes after committing a personal foul and a technical foul during the incident, which left her one foul short of disqualification and brought three of her teammates off the bench, causing their ejection.
“I just told them in the huddle, ‘Let’s get back focused,’ ” guard Kendra Coleman said. “ ‘Don’t worry about it, it’s over. We’ve got to get on it right now.’ ”
The Jaguars led by 11 points when things got heated and they pulled away to their largest margin of victory in a Southwestern Athletic Conference game this season by scoring their most points against an NCAA opponent this season.
Southern won its 11th game in a row to improve to 12-2 in the SWAC and 14-10 overall as it prepares to host Alabama State on Monday. The Lady Bulldogs are 5-8 and 6-18.
