A University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff team that won only half as many conference games as Jackson State University was still in position to stun the conference regular-season champions at halftime.
Tournament MVP Jack Ferguson scored 17 points, Nelly Cummings added 15 and Colgate turned away a late Navy push to win the Patriot League championship game 74-58 on Wednesday and return to the NCAA Tournament for the second consecutive year.
Using a smaller lineup for much of the game with three injured players out, the task didn't seem too big for the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff women's basketball team. It was just that Jackson State University is really good.
