SAN MARCOS, Texas – The Texas State women's basketball team (14-15, 9-8 Sun Belt) took care of business against a short-handed South Alabama (19-8, 8-8 Sun Belt) team by a final score of 77-45. The victory keeps the Bobcats in play for either the fifth or sixth seed and first-round bye that comes with the seed in the 2019 Sun Belt Conference Championship.
"Our team did a great job on the defensive end to make it difficult for them to get many easy looks," head coach Zenarae Antoine said. "We limited easy touches down in the post, while always avoiding the comfortable looks from the 3-point line that we gave up against Troy.
