Jackson State Mascot Earns Penalty During Game

Jackson State scored a touchdown on a long pass against Bethune-Cookman this afternoon.

At the end of the play, the State mascot ran onto the field to celebrate and help break up a scuffle.

Unfortunately, that isn’t allowed and the mascot earned a 15-yard penalty:
