BOWIE, Md. - The Lady Bulldogs basketball team scored their second lowest point of the season in Saturday night's 56-39 loss to Elizabeth City State University. The setback drops the Bowie State University record to 6-13 overall, 3-8 in the CIAA and 2-3 in the division.
Senior Jasmine Jacobs (Baltimore, Md.) paced Bowie State with 10 points to go along with a team-high three assists. Sophomores Channell Mackey (Clinton, Md.) and Bria Robinson (Richmond, Va.) added eight points each as the Lady Bulldogs were 13-of-45 shooting from the floor for a season-low 28.9 percent.
The Lady Bulldogs fell behind 18-9 midway through the first half and never got on track. Elizabeth City State jumped out to a 7-0 lead to start the game before junior Moriah Goodman scored BSU’s first two points at the 17:14 mark. The Lady Bulldogs went as a cold as the night air over the next three minutes until a Robinson jumper put two more points on the home side of the scoreboard.
