The game unfolded with both teams exhibiting strong performances in the first quarter, but it was the Lady Techsters who managed to maintain a slight edge throughout. Despite a valiant effort by the Gamecocks, they could not overcome their opponents' lead. The home team's shooting accuracy was notably lower than that of their rivals; they achieved only 30 percent from the field and 22 percent from beyond the arc compared to Louisiana Tech's impressive 48 percent and 46 percent respectively.


The Gamecocks did excel at free throws, sinking an outstanding 86 percent of their attempts. However, this proficiency from the line wasn't enough to bridge the gap created by Louisiana Tech's more effective overall shooting and ball distribution – highlighted by their substantial assist count of twenty-one.


Rebounding was one area where Jacksonville State outperformed Louisiana Tech, pulling down thirty-seven boards to Louisiana Tech's twenty-four. This included fourteen offensive rebounds which led to eleven second-chance points for Jacksonville State. Yet turnovers proved costly for them as they gave up possession twenty-one times leading to fifteen points off turnovers for Louisiana Tech.


Defensively, both teams were fairly matched with blocks and steals close in numbers; however, personal fouls were slightly higher on Jacksonville State’s side which might have impacted their defensive rhythm during crucial moments of play.


Looking ahead after this tough loss at home, fans can catch Jacksonville State as they travel to face Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders on February 21st at Murphy Athletic Center in Murfreesboro. The game is scheduled for a tip-off at 6:30 PM local time and will be available for fans to watch live as it unfolds.
