So, maybe Jackson State is better than I want to give them credit for. That is two teams that they have played close in this round robin event so far, after playing Baylor close just before that.
Jackson State won the battle of the boards against Marshall by seven. Cane had ten points for the Thundering Herd, while Shaquille Johnson lead the way with 18. Tyrone Hanson had 20 for Jackson State, while De'Shaun Dixon had 14. Jenniro Bush was held to just three points.
It was a 55-40 lead for Marshall with six minutes left, but then Jackson State got going- though they were never able to trim the lead to one possession.
The Tigers like to slow the game down, and that seems to cause some problems for their opponents. They are also a decent defensive team.
Jackson State will go to Chattanooga on Wednesday night as the Global Sports Shooutout continues. Marshall will head to Louisville on Saturday night in the round robin event.
