AUBURN, Ala. – On her 21st birthday, Auburn junior Jessica Jones scored a career-high 15 points to lead the Tigers to a 53-41 win over Jacksonville Wednesday night at Auburn Arena.
The Tigers (10-4) closed out the non-conference portion of the schedule by winning a defensive battle that saw both teams struggle to shoot the ball. Auburn held the Dolphins (9-4) to just eight points in the first half and held on for the win despite getting outscored in the second half.
“We got the win,” Auburn head coach Terri Williams-Flournoy said.
