NACOGDOCHES, Texas (KTRE) - The Southland Conference semifinal against Central Arkansas proved to be the toughest test the SFA Ladyjacks have had in 2021.
The Ladyjacks beat the Sugar Bears 55-47 to advance to Sunday’s Southland Conference Championship game. Leading by only three, Sophmore guard Zya Nugent hit a three pointer from the top of the key to secure the lead for good with just 22 seconds left.
“That was the biggest shot of my career. I can say that,” Nugent said during the postgame press conference. “Those are just moments you live for. You dream about moments like that. Honestly I was like, ‘I have to get this one. I got to get this one. I am glad I got it and I feel good about that.”
