SOUTHLAND CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP: DAY 2

Details: 10 Mar

Day 2 Recap of the Southland Conference Men's Championship @ Lake Charles, LA!

Texas A&M Corpus Christi 74 New Orleans 61

Texas A&M–Corpus Christi rode the hot hand of Daniel Michelini-Jackson to a 74-61 win over New Orleans in Monday’s first Southland Conference quarterfinal, punching their ticket to the semifinals.

Michelini-Jackson set the tone early, scoring 20 points in the first half to help the Islanders build a 16-point lead. New Orleans refused to go away, cutting the deficit to seven by halftime and eventually taking a brief one-point lead in the second half. Corpus Christi quickly regrouped, pushing the margin back to double digits and knocking down timely shots to close out the win.

A couple of key stats stood out in the Islanders’ victory. Corpus Christi controlled the glass, outrebounding New Orleans 41-29, which translated into a 24-11 advantage in second-chance points. The Islanders were also highly efficient offensively, shooting 52.8% from the field and 52.6% from three-point range. They were able to overcome 17 turnovers in the process.

Michelini-Jackson led the way with 28 points and eight rebounds. Sheldon Williams added 15 points and six rebounds, while former Episcopal star D.A. Houston contributed 11 points and six assists.

MJ Thomas recorded his second straight double-double for New Orleans with 17 points and 14 rebounds, though this time in a losing effort. Coleton Benson also scored 17 points, while Tavaj Cope chipped in 14.

Texas A&M–Corpus Christi improves to 18-14 on the season and advances to face top-seeded Stephen F. Austin in the semifinals at 6 p.m. The Islanders went 0-2 against the Lumberjacks during the regular season.

UTRGV 86 Nicholls 68

UTRGV used hot shooting and balanced scoring to roll into the semifinals with an 86-68 win over Nicholls in the second quarterfinal of the night.

The Vaqueros came out strong, jumping to a 12-2 lead before Nicholls briefly battled back to take the lead. UTRGV quickly regained control and never looked back, building a 44-32 advantage by halftime. The lead grew to as much as 25 in the second half before Nicholls made one final push to cut the deficit to 13. UTRGV responded with several timely baskets to stretch the lead back to 20 and put the game away.

UTRGV was extremely efficient offensively, shooting 58.5% from the field, 50% from three-point range, and a perfect 100% from the free-throw line. Nicholls struggled to keep pace from deep, finishing just 5-of-20 from beyond the arc.

Filip Brankovic led the Vaqueros with 21 points and five rebounds. Koree Cotton added 18 points and five assists, while Jaylen Washington contributed 15 points and five assists. Marvin McGhee III chipped in 13 points and five rebounds, and Julien Gomez finished with 12 points in the win.

Nicholls was led by Trae English with 17 points, followed by Jalin Rice with 13. Christian Welcome added 11 points, while Grant Sanders pulled down 12 rebounds in the loss.

UTRGV improves to 16-13 and will face No. 2 seed and host McNeese State in the semifinals at 8:30 p.m. The teams split their regular-season meetings, with each winning on their home floor.

DAY 1 RECAP!

New Orleans 73 Houston Christian 60
New Orleans advanced to the quarterfinals of the Southland Conference Championship with a 73-60 win over Houston Christian, powered by a double-double from MJ Thomas. He finished with 10 points and 12 rebounds as the Privateers controlled the glass, outrebounding Houston Christian 43-27 and turning that advantage into 11 second-chance points while holding HCU to none.

The game was tight early, with New Orleans holding a slim one-point lead at halftime. The Privateers created separation in the second half with a decisive 12-0 run that helped put the game out of reach.

Houston Christian took a major hit when D’Aundre Samuels, who scored 15 points in the first half, appeared to get banged up and was not the same after the break. He managed just five points in the second half, which significantly impacted HCU’s chances. Samuels still led all scorers with 20 points.

New Orleans was led by its top two scorers, Coleton Benson and Jakevion Buckley, who each finished with 14 points. Buckley struggled from the field, shooting 3-for-14, but made an impact at the free-throw line, going 7-for-8 while also contributing six assists and five rebounds.

Kylin Green added 13 points and five rebounds for Houston Christian, while Demarco Bethea chipped in 11 points and six rebounds.

Houston Christian closes the season with a 12-20 record, while New Orleans improves to 15-17 and will face No. 4 seed Texas A&M-Corpus Christi in the quarterfinals at 5:00 p.m.

Nicholls 61 Northwestern State 47
Nicholls used a key 10-0 run in the second half to create separation and advance to the quarterfinals of the Southland Conference Tournament with a 61-47 win over Northwestern State.

Both teams struggled offensively in the first half, combining to shoot just 17-for-52 from the field. Nicholls found its rhythm after the break, shooting 55% in the second half to pull away and secure the victory.

The Colonels controlled the paint throughout the game, outscoring Northwestern State 38-12 inside.

Sincere Malone led Nicholls with 14 points, while Jalik Dunkley added 13 points and seven rebounds. Jalin Rice also reached double figures with 12 points in the win.

Izzy Miles paced Northwestern State with 14 points, followed by former Atacocita Eagle star Landyn Jumawan with 12. The Demons struggled to get production from their leading scorer, Micah Thomas, who finished with just four points on 2-of-13 shooting after averaging 17.2 points per game during the season. Former Westfield Mustang Willie Williams pulled down 11 rebounds.

Northwestern State ends its season at 10-22, while Nicholls improves to 14-18 and will face No. 3 seed UTRGV in the quarterfinals tomorrow night at 7:30 p.m.
