“I was happy with the intensity and sense of urgency that we played with in the second half,” TSU head coach Mike Davis said after the game. “We did a good job of sharing the basketball and we got back to playing fundamentally sound on the defensive end of the floor which was a key for us being able to get things turned around in the second half after we got out to a slow start.”

Big man Trayvon Reed came up big down low, scoring 15 points and grabbing 17 rebounds for the Tigers (4-15, 4-2 SWAC).

TxSU managed to end a two-game SWAC losing streak against winless Valley despite missing the services of Jefferson, who has reportedly been kicked off the team. Jefferson is currently the eighth leading scorer in Divsion I basketball with an average of 23.2 points per game.
