A-State to host Southern in the first round of the WNIT

A-State is scheduled to take on Southern Thursday at the Convocation Center. Tipoff for the game will be announced tomorrow afternoon.

Southern, a repressive of the SWAC, finished the season with a record of 19-11 (14-4) to finish second in their conference. The Lady Jaguars lost in the SWAC title game 55-51 to Alabama State.

A-State, meanwhile, comes into the contest with a record of 26-5 (19-1). The Red Wolves have lost just twice in 2016, and were crowned the 2015-16 Sun Belt Conference regular season champions.

This will be the second year in a row A-State will host a WNIT game.
