GSU Beats Alabama A&M, Claims No. 5 Seed in SWAC

The Tigers will travel to Prairie View A&M for first round of the SWAC Quarterfinals.

GRAMBLING, La.(Men's Basketball) —A special moment happened during Grambling State University's Senior Day when all five seniors were on the court one last time at the three-minute mark. Moments later, Head Coach Shawn Walker honored his seniors by substituting all five to the bench as the crowd in the Fredrick C. Hobdy Assembly Center applauded. 

Grambling State (15-16, 10-8 SWAC) dominated Alabama A&M University, 78-57, en route to their tenth conference win. Tiger seniors Chase Cormier, Remond Brown, Ervin Mitchell, Carlton Lowe and Xairius Larry all impacted senior night with explosive plays.

???????Cormier ran the Tigers offense smoothly committing zero turnovers with five points and one steal. Brown scored 14 points, grabbed six rebounds, three steals and landed a forceful right handed jam in transition bringing the crowd to their feet. Mitchell was a scoring machine notching a game high 27 points and frustrated Bulldogs defenders with his strong right hand ability.

Lowe finished with six points. Lowe dazzled the crowd as he grabbed one rebound darted down court dished a spectacular no look hand pass to Avery Ugba who finished with a layup. Last but not least, Larry picked a Bulldog player's pocket raced down, flipped a pass behind his back to Brown who finished at the rim sending the Hobdy Center into a uproar.

Not to be outdone, Ugba recorded his 12th double-double of the season with 16 points and 14 rebounds.

???????Grambling State will travel to Houston, Texas to play Prairie View A&M University in a Southwestern Athletic Conference quarterfinal tournament game on Tuesday, March 7 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $15 for general admission. GSU student can enter for free with a valid student ID.
