The Ole Miss Women’s Basketball team host the Jacksonville State Gamecocks. Tip-off is set for 6 p.m. inside the Pavilion at Ole Miss.
Ole Miss defeated Lipscomb 79-46 on Sunday evening. Shandricka Sessom scored a game-high 26 points, while Erika Sisk added 14 points and nine rebounds in the win. Shelby Gibson was also in double figures with 10 points as the Rebels held their opponent to under 50 points for the second straight game.
Let’s take a closer look at Jacksonville State.
The Gamecocks enter Thursday’s matchup with a 1-1 record after defeating Kennesaw State, 65-59, on Monday afternoon. Rayven Pearson led the Gamecocks with 10 points and 10 rebounds, while Destany Mclin and Lacey Buchanon also posted double figures with 11 and 10 points, respectively. In their opener against No. 12 Florida State, the Gamecocks fought with them until the end, outscoring the Seminoles in two of the four quarters before falling, 73-62. Briana Benson led the way with a game-high 21 points and 10 rebounds.
Going deeper into this rivalry between the two schools, the Rebels and the Gamecocks are meeting for the third time with Ole Miss leading the series 2-0. Jacksonville State will be making their third trip to Oxford. Ole Miss has never played on Jacksonville State’s home floor. When these teams last met in 2013, both head coaches were coaching their first games with their respective institutions.
