TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Alabama State women’s basketball coach Freda Freeman-Jackson said her players have been great listeners all season long.That trait has helped to give the Hornets the opportunity to represent their school at 12:30 p.m. Saturday when they take on Florida State in the first round of the NCAA tournament in Tallahassee.
ASU (17-14) earned the automatic bid by winning the SWAC Tournament in Houston and is the No. 15 seed in the Greensboro Regional. Florida State (29-4) enters the game as the No. 2 seed, its highest seed in school history.
Freeman-Jackson said her team will not be intimated by the daunting task.
“They believe in our system,” Freeman-Jackson said. “They know how to persevere and take advantage of opportunities afforded to them. They’re really working hard and really believe in one another.”
