The Jaguars stymied Southern Miss and came away with a 75-62 victory. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Fasoyiro wasn\u2019t the only player to have an impressive outing for the Jags, local talent Barry Dunning added on 12 points extended his games in double figures streak to 12. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">It was a game in which South Alabama didn\u2019t have the greatest start with the Eagles and Jags trading punches for the better half of 8 minutes. At the 12:10 mark of the first half to play Judah Brown nailed a 3 pointer to make it an 11-10 Jaguar lead. Judah Brown rattled off 11 first half points and South Alabama lead the rest of the way. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">With a 42-33 advantage at the break, it was all about staying focused for the Jags and that they did. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">It was a monumental win for South Alabama as they make it 5 straight against geographical rival Southern Miss. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Other positives for the Jags include the return of Randy Brady who collected 7 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists for the Jags in 28 minutes of play. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The tale of the tape in this one was the Jags successes from behind the arc. While South Alabama shot a very respectable 35.9%, the Golden Eagles were not Golden from 3 point land. Southern Miss on the night shot 8-34 just 23.5%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">South Alabama now looks forward to Saturday in what is shaping up to be a MASSIVE game in conference play against in state rival Troy. The Trojans stand 11-6 and 4-2 in Sun Belt Play. Saturday matchup proves pivotal for both teams under the new Sun Belt Tournament format, in a conference where the top 2 seeds only need to win twice in Pensacola, 11 of its 14 teams are within 3 games of first place early in conference play. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Tickets for Saturday\u2019s matchup can be purchased online at USAJaguars.com or at the gate on Saturday.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Led on the night by Dylan Fasoyiro\u2019s 17 points, Richie Riley and the South Alabama Jaguars got back in the win column following a disappointing <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/wnsp.com\/wordpress\/jags-back-on-track-topple-southern-miss-75-62\/\" title=\"Jags Back on Track; Topple Southern Miss 75-62\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":4876,"featured_media":1133907,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[147,5,151,176],"tags":[1209,1208,775,1210,772,173,1205],"class_list":{"0":"post-1133906","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-featured-news","8":"category-home","9":"category-south-alabama","10":"category-top","11":"tag-barry-dunning","12":"tag-dylan-fasoyiro","13":"tag-mitchell-center","14":"tag-mobile-alabama","15":"tag-richie-riley","16":"tag-south-alabama","17":"tag-usa-basketball"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/wnsp.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1068550277269822354.jpeg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wnsp.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1133906","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wnsp.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wnsp.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wnsp.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4876"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wnsp.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1133906"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/wnsp.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1133906\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1133908,"href":"https:\/\/wnsp.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1133906\/revisions\/1133908"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wnsp.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1133907"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wnsp.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1133906"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wnsp.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1133906"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wnsp.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1133906"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
