Bossier City, LA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tavaris Washington had 14 points and five
rebounds as the Arkansas-Pine Bluff Golden Lions took home the Southwestern
Athletic Conference Tournament title with a 50-38 win over Texas Southern,
giving the Golden Lions their first ever bid to the NCAA Tournament.
Allen Smith had 11 points while Lebaron Weathers, George Davis and Savalance
Townsend each chipped in with six points for the second-seeded Golden Lions
(17-15), who are going to the NCAA Tournament on a tear as the team has won 11
of their last 12.
DeAndre Hall had 14 points and nine rebounds while Junior Treasure added 14
points for the fifth-seeded Tigers (17-16), who were looking to win their
fifth tournament title.
Texas-Southern held the early lead, but Arkansas-Pine Bluff chipped away and
took a 12-9 lead on Washington's layup with 11 1/2 minutes left in the first
half.
The Tigers rallied with a 7-0 spurt, but then went almost the rest of the half
without any points as the Golden Lions closed the half with a 12-2 run to
take a 26-20 lead into the break.
Texas-Southern cut its deficit to five points with 11 1/2 minutes to play in
the second half, as Treasure's jumper made it a 36-31 game.
However, the Tigers again went cold on the offensive end over the next six-
plus minutes and the Golden Lions used that to stretch their lead.
Washington hit a three-ball after Treasure's jumper, then hit two free throws,
and Weathers' tip-in made it a 43-31 game with a little over eight minutes to
play.
From there Arkansas-Pine Bluff had no problems maintaining a double-digit lead
on the way to the win.
