G
eorgia State University started its climb to the highest levels of college athletics in 2012 when it announced it would join the Sun Belt Conference. On July 1, 2013, the Panther athletic department became eligible to win championships in every league-sponsored sport and a year later was fully reclassified to the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS).
The Panthers’ choice for a new home was a simple process considering the trajectory of the Sun Belt Conference. With its mantra “Together We Rise,” the league exemplifies what has become America’s most up-and-coming collegiate athletics conference. Founded in 1976, the Sun Belt has adapted and evolved in its nearly 40-year existence. The league was originally formed as a home for some of the nation’s premier mid-major basketball teams. With the demand for a higher national profile, the league began sponsoring football in 2001. The move into the group of football playing conferences has given the Sun Belt Conference a permanent seat on the NCAA’s 18-member Board of Directors and today the league has a crucial voice on some of the most pressing issues in college athletics. With the College Football Playoff included with the league’s other bowl arrangements, the Sun Belt Conference is tied to seven total bowl games. However, football is not the only sport that has seen recent success as all of the league’s sports have contributed to the “Rise” of the Sun Belt Conference. Georgia State put together one of the best performances in league history while winning the 2013-14 Sun Belt regularseason men’s basketball championship. Like women’s basketball, men’s teams earned three postseason bids in 2014. Baseball and softball also continue to be among the league’s standard-bearers for success. On the baseball diamond, the Sun Belt has sent up to four baseball teams to the NCAA tournament in a season, with UL Lafayette leading the way with a No. 1 national ranking in 2014. In softball, three teams have made the postseason, highlighted by the Ragin’ Cajuns who reached their sixth Women’s College World Series a year ago. Georgia State is looking to add to that success. So far, the Panthers have brought home league titles in women’s cross country (2012), men’s tennis (2013), men’s golf (2014) and women’s tennis (2014) in addition to the men’s basketball squad’s historic run. A total of 76 players earned All-Sun Belt recognition in the Panthers’ first two years back in the league. Off the field, student-athletes from around the league have been honored for their excellence in the classroom as well as their philanthropy in the community. Georgia State has added to the success since 2012-13, featuring two academic AllAmericans while posting two of the highest combined gradepoint averages in school history. Also in that span, Panther teams have contributed more than 5,000 hours of community service each year.

The Georgia State Athletics Master Facilities Plan is a blueprint for success and growth for GSU Athletics that will allow every Panther program to compete at the highest level. A new weight room for football and an academic learning center are already being planned in the near future. More potential growth exists if a Turner Field master plan is approved through the city and county. A centerpiece of the Athletics Master Plan is the transformation of the GSU Sports Arena (left), the home of Panther basketball and volleyball as well as the athletics offices.

MARK P. BECKER SINCE BEGINNING HIS TENURE as Georgia State University’s seventh QSFTJEFOU JO +BOVBSZ 1SFTJEFOU .BSL 1 #FDLFS IBT MFE UIF JOTUJUVUJPO through a dynamic period of major growth and advancement. Under his leadership, the university adopted a comprehensive 10-year strategic plan aimed at making Georgia State one of the nation’s premier urban research universities. With a 10 percent increase in graduation rates in the last five years, Georgia State is achieving its vision of becoming a national model for undergraduate education by demonstrating that students of all backgrounds can succeed at high rates. The university has been recognized by the Education Trust for eliminating disparities in graduation rates based on race or ethnicity. Diverse Issues in Higher Education places Georgia State No. 1 in the nation among non-profit institutions in graduating African-American students and in the top 50 universities for graduating AsianAmericans. Hispanic Outlook in Higher Education magazine lists Georgia State as a top 100 university for graduating Hispanics, making the university one of only two non-Florida universities in the Southeast to attain this achievement. During Becker’s tenure Georgia State has set a series of university records for retention and graduation rates, as well as for the retention of the Georgia Lottery-funded HOPE Scholarship. This progress has been achieved as enrollment has grown from about 28,000 to more than 32,000 students, and the number of applications to the university has steadily risen and now exceeds 13,000. Private scholarship funding has increased significantly, and the university has more than doubled the number of students receiving support in the last two years. Research funding is at an all-time high, increasing nearly 15 percent in the last year alone. Federally sponsored research now accounts for 62 percent of the university’s research portfolio, an important barometer of the university’s research success. This growth has been aided by the Second Century Initiative, a faculty hiring program that has led to the development of new
32
interdisciplinary research centers. Seeking to position Georgia State students and researchers to thrive in an increasingly complex and global landscape, Becker has worked with faculty leaders to enhance Georgia State’s international profile. The university is working in five countries in which it is focusing its university-wide efforts: Brazil, China, South Africa, South Korea and Turkey. Through its campus development, Georgia State is a major contributor to the revitalization of downtown Atlanta. Building on the work of former President Carl V. Patton, the university has expanded campus housing and dining, research and academic facilities. Georgia State enhanced its research capacity with the opening of the Parker H. “Pete� Petit Science Center in 2009 and is designing and building a second research building on the same site. The university enlarged its instructional capacity with a classroom expansion project completed in 2011. Student housing has almost doubled with the addition of Patton Hall, a Greek townhome complex, and the Piedmont North housing and dining complex. The opening of the $10 million football practice facility enabled Georgia State to introduce its football program in fall 2010. The purchase of 3.5 acres of land on the eastern edge of the campus has made it possible for the university to have its first intramural recreation fields on its downtown campus. The Sun Trust tower complex at 25 Park Place houses major units of the College of Arts and Sciences and the expanded university advising center. The university has a new front door for visitors with the opening last year of Centennial Hall at 100 Auburn Ave. The building houses Georgia State’s Welcome Center, university administration and the recently established Honors College. A new Law School building is nearing completion, and the university has acquired 55 Park Place, a high-rise building that will be the new home of the Robinson
College of Business and the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies. Assuring that Georgia State is appropriately partnered in Atlanta and beyond, Becker serves on multiple civic, community and professional boards. Becker and his wife, Laura Voisinet, are significant contributors to the university. They are focusing their philanthropy primarily on scholarships for students but also support the university’s Library, the Rialto Center for the Arts and Georgia State’s Women’s Philanthropy Initiative. Prior to his appointment as president of Georgia State, Becker was executive vice president for academic affairs and provost at the University of South Carolina. Before assuming that role, Becker spent three years at the University of Minnesota as a biostatistics professor, dean of the School of Public Health and assistant vice president of Public Health, Preparedness and Emergency Response. From 1989 to 2000, Becker was a professor and associate dean for academic affairs at the University of Michigan’s School of Public Health. He also has held academic appointments at the University of Washington, the University of Florida and Cornell University. Becker earned his bachelor’s degree in mathematics from Towson State University in 1980, and his doctor’s degree in statistics from the Pennsylvania State University in 1985. He is a Fellow of the American Statistical Association, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Towson State and Penn State have recognized him with distinguished alumnus awards. Becker grew up in Havre de Grace, Md., near Baltimore. He and his wife have two adult children, Matthew and Julia.

Not only is he a proven builder and proven winner with a track record of doing it in the right way, but he also has tremendous Atlanta roots,” Becker said. “He knows this community well, has worked in this city, knows what we are doing and the potential we have in this program.” The potential that Georgia State has shown was a significant draw for Cobb, and Becker saw a resume that was a perfect match to take the rising Panther Athletic Department to new levels. Since 2009, Georgia State has gone from not having a football program, to starting an FCS squad in 2010, to moving fulltime into the FBS and Sun Belt Conference in 2013 prior to Cobb’s arrival. Now, the next step awaits the Panthers, who won five conference titles in their first two years in the Sun Belt. With Cobb at the helm, they have set sights on growing their brand throughout Atlanta while becoming a perennial contender for the Bubas Cup, the league’s allsports trophy. Cobb came to Atlanta after spending nine years as Director of Athletics at Appalachian State. He prepared for the endeavor by serving seven years as a senior associate athletics director at NC State, his alma mater, and previously worked for six years in Atlanta.
During those formative years, Cobb honed his business acumen with the Atlanta Sports Council, the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl and the Georgia Dome. It was at those stops that he was instrumental in bringing the NCAA men’s basketball Final Four, the Southeastern Conference (SEC) football championship, and the SEC and Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) basketball championships to Atlanta. With his knowledge of Atlanta and experience in reshaping the image of a program, Cobb came to the Panthers at the perfect time with several significant athletic building projects on the horizon. High among the Panthers’ priorities are: a weight room and coaches offices at the football practice facility; a new basketball and volleyball practice facility; a dedicated academic performance center; and the University’s concept for taking over Turner Field to create a mixed-use area that also would house several Panther sports teams. Cobb has led successful programs by focusing on four pillars of his leadership philosophy: 1) relationships matter; 2) embrace the idea of achieving success; 3) be innovative; 4) create traditions. Those ideals helped him build and maintain a high-performing program at App State. The Mountaineers won three consecutive Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) national championships, the first three-peat in the history, early in Cobb’s tenure. They also brought home eight consecutive Commissioner’s Cup championships (top men’s sports program in the Southern Conference) and four Germann Cup championships (top women’s program). Together, they earned the men’s and
women’s awards in the same academic year four times, an unprecedented achievement in the conference. Cobb helped create $50 million in facilities improvements in his nine years at App State, primarily behind the success of the Mountaineers’ fundraising efforts that reached all-time highs. Among the fundraising highlights was surpassing the $3 million mark for the first time in 2012-13. The jewel of the construction projects was the seven-story Appalachian Athletics Center, which includes new football offices and locker rooms, training facilities, study areas, club-level seating and 18 luxury suites. The fundraising campaign produced new homes for Mountaineer baseball, softball and soccer, as well as a new indoor practice facility and renovations to the university’s Varsity Gym. The 46-year-old Cobb was a four-year letterwinner as a football player at NC State. A native of West Columbia, S.C., Cobb graduated with honors with a bachelor’s degree in business administration in 1990 and earned a master’s degree in sports administration from Ohio in 1992. As a senior center, he was named to the All-ACC second team. He was an All-ACC academic selection and earned the Jim Tatum Award given to the ACC football senior with the highest grade-point average and the Bob Warren Memorial Award, given to a football player for integrity and sportsmanship. Cobb and his wife, Lindsay, have a son and daughter, 16-year-old Harrison and 13-year-old Branan. Lindsay Cobb was an All-ACC goalkeeper for the NC State women’s soccer team from 1988-90.

SEASON PREVIEW
GEORGIA STATE PANTHERS
The First Look At The Season With 12 returning letterwinners for 2014-15, head coach Sharon Baldwin-Tener and her team have higher expectations from the fifth-place finish in the inaugural Sun Belt Conference season (8-10, 12-19 overall) that was hampered by injuries from start to finish. “The team has made great strides since the last game in March, have taken a lot of pride in themselves and really moved us in a positive direction,” Baldwin-Tener said. “The year ahead is really about us and about doing our best, not really about who we play. We have some leaders and veterans who understand the level of competition required, the daily intensity and knowing what it takes to win. It has been about getting better every day and setting a standard of success. “We have our own measuring standards for 2014-15 and with 12 veterans, I think the team is hungrier for success now. They will be heading into the season in November primed and ready for the challenges ahead.” Watching the Georgia State men’s team win 25 games and go 13-0 at home a year ago helped inspire the women to believe that through hard work and getting the most of one’s talents, anything is possible. “I think seeing it first-hand, our team has a desire to have success like that and try to build fan support and be one of the best teams in the Sun Belt. Who doesn’t want to be in a position to challenge for a top spot in the league?” the fifth-year GSU coach noted.

Senior point guard Alisha Andrews led the Sun Belt in assists in 2013-14 and will pass 500 career assists early in the 2014-15 season.
One thing coaches can’t control is injuries and that was a huge factor in last year’s storyline. Three of the post players were injured for extended periods, with two lost for the season. Multiple guards were slowed by injuries and one had surgery. “You can’t control how a player falls, or lands, or gets hit, but you can condition the best you can and be physically fit and I’ve seen the team work hard to really improve the overall fitness,” Baldwin-Tener said. “Now we just need some luck, I guess, to keep everyone healthy this year. At one point last year, we could only practice six players, so that makes it hard to game plan and be ready to play several games a week.” When asked to describe what she sees as assets to the 2014-15 Georgia State team, Baldwin-Tener was the most
optimistic she’s been in her five years now at the helm. “Having 12 returning players and five seniors give us depth and leadership,” she said. “We are further along in conditioning than before and now we understand how to react in close games and how to finish. I think we can play faster and quicker this year and we can be much more aggressive defensively, which should fit our athleticism and style. We have good size in the post to create some advantages. Our guard play is solid and we can utilize multiple line-ups and methods of attack. We have good point guards to take care of the ball and distribute the ball to keep everyone involved.” Baldwin-Tener also has been pleased with her entirely new and veteran trio of assistant coaches. “They really bring an upbeat attitude and knowl-

double-double games. Logan had come back from a year off basketball and took a while to get back into fullcourt basketball condition, so a full off-season to prepare should make a difference. “As a senior, I expect her to be hungry to finish her college career on a high note,” Baldwin-Tener said.“She can be a match-up problem for most teams and is effective on both ends of the court.”
Six-foot-2 Ashanti Groover brings a rugged force for rebounding as she averaged about two a game as a freshman in a reserve role. Her season, too, ended early with an injury on Feb. 8 and surgery. She also had 10 blocks and got a better understanding of the college game. Six-foot-four Jamila Mayfield tied for the team lead with 16 blocked shots in just 118 minutes, while showing her next three years at Georgia State could be productive with continued progress.
The Panthers have a trio of sophomores back after rocky first seasons in college ball. Their return to health and adjustments made to college ball should start paying some dividends this year.

edge of the game to challenge the players,” Baldwin-Tener said. “Their skills should help pay dividends all year. They’ve helped us step up our pace.” Post Players: Georgia State will build around a core of four 6-foot-2 or taller players to potentially have one of the better inside games in the Sun Belt. But, the health of this group was the problem last year, so ensuring that all four are back at 100 percent and ready to go in February or March is essential to our success. Six-foot-four senior center Brittany Logan came back from an earlyseason ailment to finish the final 14 games averaging 12.1 points and 11.0 rebounds per game. That kind of production all season long would likely give her all-conference consideration. She led the Sun Belt in offensive rebounding for the season and had nine
Six-foot-2 Haley Gerrin played with an injury that eventually required surgery and cost her the final 11 games of the season. But, even though not at 100 percent at any point as a freshman, she showed her potential with six double-figure games, topped by a 23-point outing. Gerrin led the Sun Belt in field-goal percentage for the season (53.5), hit 70.8 percent from the free-throw line and showed she had starter’s potential with 11 starts in December and January before her surgery. “Haley showed she can make things happen and is a good shooter from mid-range and in, so her future is really bright if she is back healthy and strong,” Baldwin-Tener added.

stand mentally what we’re trying to do, so we are real deep and have quality up and down this area.”
Baldwin-Tener tempers her hopes for this group’s shining success, but sees the potential. “The health issues and general conditioning of this quartet will keep me concerned until I see them all ready and able to go 100 percent full speed in the fall, but they bring so much to the team,” she said.
Andrews was slowed last year with nagging injuries and still led the Sun Belt in assists (4.6 per game). She appears to be back in healthy form that saw her be an all-conference guard in the CAA. The 4-foot-11 wizard can score (1,008 career points, 50 doublefigure games), hit the 3 (170 career 3-point baskets), make the pass (466 career assists), make the steal (258 career thefts) and control the tempo of a game on either end of the court.
“We can play two at a time in big zones, interchange and sub them, or go four guards to create space inside sometimes, but we should be able to get points from our inside game
“We’ve got great experience and dependability in our two senior ball-handlers Alisha (Andrews) and Ashley (Watson),” BaldwinTener noted.

and control a rebounding advantage,” coach noted. “Getting the rebound off a miss and getting the transition game going can be so important for us.” Georgia State had a rebounding advantage in all but four of its Sun Belt Conference games last year. Guards: Using either the three-guard or four-guard sets among the nine guards will not be a problem with the depth and skill Georgia State has in its veteran guards.

Watson had surgery in December but came back to join the team for the second half of the season. She can hit the jumper (445 points and 16 doublefigure games), dish the assist (151 career) and is the school’s free-throw record holder (82.4%). The Californian can play either the one or two-guard spot and has good basketball knowledge and awareness. “Seniors Kayla Nolan and Miranda Smith give us a lot of versatility and leadership,” coach stated. “They can slash to the basket, hit the boards, play tough defense and make big plays.” Nolan has played 90 games with 58 starts, scoring 631 career points with 27 double-figure games. Defensively,

The First Look At The Season she’s added 354 career rebounds with three double-figure games and made 118 steals. Smith has contributed in 89 career games with 19 starts. Her 293 career points include four double-figuregames. Smith has added 186 rebounds and made 47 steals and is a tough match-up defender. “We’ve got a trio of juniors who are all ready for break-out seasons,”
Moss made two game-winning baskets last year and had eight doublefigure games. The Washington, D.C. native has scored 303 career points with 11 double-figure games and made 37 3-point baskets, while making 65 assists. Cole’s first two seasons have included 326 points with 11 double-figure games. A good outside scoring threat, she has 42 career 3-points. She’s been a great spark plug coming off the bench and is ready to contribute even more. Jackson got 11 starts as a sophomore with 151 career points and 19 treys. She’s added 128 rebounds and is a dead-eye free-throw shooter (90.3% career).
Junior Ashley Watson holds two school records for free-throw shooting.
Baldwin-Tener noted of Gaby Moss, Ashlee Cole and Morgan Jackson. “Gaby has become a leader on and off the court. Ashlee is a scorer and shooter who has shown steady improvement and can be a major factor. Morgan has been a big surprise in all aspects of her game and has really stepped it up another level this year.”
Young pups Mariam Hannoun, a sophomore from Israel, and freshman Makeba Ponder will be looking to find ways to make contributions. Hannoun adjusted to American basketball and flashed potential. Ponder led the state of Georgia in scoring last year (24.5 ppg) at Colquitt County High School and has made 232 career 3-point baskets. The Schedule: With the additions of new Sun Belt schools Georgia Southern and Appalachian State, the league schedule grows to 20 games this year, making those games almost 70 percent of the schedule. After last year’s tough slate with 18 road games, this year’s slate reverses with seven of the nine non-conference games at home. Coupled with the 10 home Sun Belt games, that makes 17

of the 30 on the home court, making a home-court advantage a necessity for success. “Teams usually play better at home and the good teams capitalize on that, so that’s in our hands to take care of regardless of the opponent,” BaldwinTener commented. “Winning at home builds confidence for the road, so it all goes hand in hand.” The season starts Nov. 15 at North Florida in Jacksonville and gears up for the Sun Belt Championship in New Orleans from March 11-14.

Sharon Baldwin-Tener heads into her fifth season at Georgia State after guiding the team through its transition into the Sun Belt conference. In 2013-14, the Panthers finished fifth in the 10-team league, defeating seven of the teams. GSU defeated the first-place team on the road, while also claming a win over the third and fourth-place teams ahead of them. The Panthers had a five-game league win streak from Jan. 14-29. GSU’s inaugural Sun Belt game was a win on New Year’s Day over Troy. The season started with the first WNIT preseason tournament appearance in school history, dropping all three to future 20-win teams. Kendra Long earned third-team All-Sun Belt honors and was twice the league player-of-the-week winner. She set the school career mark for 3-point baskets made. In 2012-13, Baldwin-Tener played 10 players a balanced 325 minutes or more. The 13-16 season included a non-

In state, GSU defeated Kennesaw State by 21 points and Georgia Southern by 25 points. Cody Paulk was named to the CAA All-Defensive Team and shattered school blocked shots records, while also earning all-academic recognition. Kayla Nolan was a CAA Player of the Week and Ashlee Cole a CAA Rookie of the Week. In a challenging 2011-12 season, Baldwin-Tener worked with five freshmen and finished with 12 players starting a game and 10 players leading the team in scoring in a game as she worked all the newcomers into the program. The team went 6-5 in the non-conference portion of the schedule and fought in a league that ranked seventh among 31 Division I conferences.

In 2010-11, her first season at GSU, the Panthers continued to improve as the season went along, showcased by a win in the CAA Championship vs. a team that had beaten GSU by 24 points earlier in the year. GSU had its first three-game G win w streak in its short CAA history during February, h while also defeating two w CAA teams which had been C ranked in the Mid-Major r Top T 25 poll. In I 2010-11, Baldwin-Tener had h an All-CAA player (Chan Harris), an All-CAA (

Baldwin-Tener picked up her 200th career win as a head coach on Dec. 29, 2010, vs. Mississippi Valley State (9165) and guided GSU to the 500th all-time win in school history on Jan. 9, 2011, in a win over Hofstra (84-70). In eight years, she turned around the East Carolina women’s basketball program, winning 126 games, while earning postseason bids to the NCAA and WNIT tournaments.

As a student, she transferred to Georgia for her final two seasons under coach Landers and was a starting guard and team captain her senior campaign. The Bulldogs finished No. 7, with five wins over top 20 teams, including a nationally televised win over No. 3 Tennessee. Baldwin led the team in free throw percentage (79%). As a junior, her team was 23-7 and No. 10 in the final AP poll.
centage, No. 14 in overall field goal percentage, No. 19 in assists and No. 42 in rebound margin among the 345 Division I colleges and universities. Her tenure at ECU followed one season at Mercer. She was the Atlantic Sun Conference Coach of the Year in her only season in Macon. She first gained notice as the NAIA National Coach of the Year at Life University. She began that program with a final No. 7 ranking in its first year and produced a team ranked No.1 in the national polls in her second season (2001). In her first 12 years as a head coach before coming to GSU, Baldwin-Tener had a 207-161 overall record. Her 126 wins at ECU are a school record. Her assistant coaching career was highlighted by being named the Naismith National Assistant Coach of the Year (1996) while she was in her sixth year at Georgia under head coach Andy Landers. With her recruiting help, the Bulldogs advanced to the NCAA championship game in 1996 and ended with a final No. 2 ranking. UGA also earned a No. 4 ranking in 1995 and a No. 6 ranking in 1997. Georgiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 1993 recruiting class was ranked No. 1 in the country and the 1997 class was No. 2. Her recruits included All-Americans Rachel Powell, Kedra HollandCorn, as well as the WNBA-bound twins Coco and Kelly Miller (both went on to play with the Atlanta Dream).

Baldwin-Tener arrived at East Carolina in 2002 with solid credentials and the reputation of a program-builder. When she arrived at ECU, they were coming off a 6-21 season in 2001-02. In her eight years with the Lady Pirate program, she exceeded expectations. Given the task of resurrecting a program that had 18 winning seasons in its first 23 years from 1969-1992, she quickly left her mark and molded ECU into a championship contender. What Baldwin-Tener did after accepting the ECU position was clear not only in the community, but also around the country. The squadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s RPI rating improved nearly 150

National Coach of the Year and earned her second-straight Naismith Georgia NAIA Division III Coach-of-the-Year honor.
In 2008-09, East Carolina led Conference USA in attendance, drawing an average of 1,602 fans per contest and upped that with 1,935 in 2009-10.
Baldwin-Tener enjoyed a successful playing career at both the high school and collegiate levels. At Wills High School (merged with Campbell High School) in Smyrna, Ga., she averaged 21 points per contest as a senior and was named the 1985 Georgia Class 4A State Player of the Year. The top male player at Wills when she was there was Brian Oliver, who went on to Georgia Tech to play on its 1990 Final Four team.
Baldwin-Tener’s building process really showed in 2007 as East Carolina accomplished another first – a Conference USA Tournament title. For the first time since 1982, the Lady Pirates were represented in the NCAA Tournament field of 64. After sending home SMU in the C-USA quarterfinals and edging UAB in the semifinals, the Lady Pirates beat Rice to win the championship game. Prior to her appointment at East Carolina, Baldwin-Tener served one season as head coach at Mercer in Macon, Ga. She took over a program that won only six games a season prior and led the Bears to a 16-13 record and berth in the semifinals of the Atlantic Sun Tournament. The 10-game improvement represented one of the biggest turnarounds in Division I that season. Baldwin-Tener’s aforementioned penchant for being a program-maker rang true in the three years she spent at Life University. She literally built the program from the ground up as the NAIA-affiliated university did not sponsor women’s basketball until her arrival. In two seasons of competition, the Lady Eagles compiled a stellar record of 53-14. In the program’s first season (19992000), Baldwin-Tener led Life to a 22-11 mark as the Lady Eagles advanced to the NAIA Sweet Sixteen. In year two, Life’s Lady Eagles put together a remarkable 31-3 record, including a 19-game winning streak, and advanced to the Elite Eight of the national tournament. Life ended the season as the No. 1 team in the final NAIA national poll. BaldwinTener added more hardware to her resume that season as she was named the WBCA NAIA
In Smyrna, Baldwin was in classes at Griffin Middle School with actress Julia Roberts.

Makeba Ponder Freshman / Guard/ 5-8 Moultrie, Ga./Colquitt County HS
Played AAU ball with Georgia Metros under coach Shari Griggs...First seen by Georgia State as sophomore in summer AAU ball and that helped in her decision when other schools came calling as senior. Assistant coach Stephanie Cody helped Ponder develop consistent and quick release on 3-point shot. PERSONAL Born Makeba Quantea Ponder on Sept. 12, 1995 in Moultrie, Ga., a town of 15,000 residents about 200 miles south of Atlanta.
Ponder liked Moore's determination, emotional level and how Moore lived up to the hype of a star and leader. When not actually playing basketball, enjoys playing basketball in video games. Ponder maintained good grades and qualified above the 3.0 GPA needed to be a Hope Scholar in Georgia...Favorite subjects were math and algebra. Plans to major in education and become a teacher and probably a basketball coach.
The daughter of Marcus and Shantae, she is oldest of five siblings...Brothers Shahem, 16, and Montavious, 13, are already into sports, especially basketball. Sisters Gla'nijh, 7, and Fredrika, 4, have plenty of time before organized sports kick in. Grandfather owns a restaurant in Moultrie and father still works there... Cousin Xavier Johnson was a major influence in Ponder's sports decisions and early training, so she will wear No. 10 because that was his number... Observed WNBA star and former Connecticut player, Maya Moore, as an influence on her game because

GEORGIA STATE PANTHERS
THE INJURY FACTOR
Georgia State played its first year in the Sun Belt Conference. After being picked by the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coaches to finish eighth, the Panthers finished fifth. At the mid-season point, GSU was 6-2 and had risen into a tie for second place for several weeks. During the Sun Belt season, Georgia State defeated the firstplace team on the road (Arkansas State) and the second-place team at home (Texas State). GSU also topped the third-place squad (UALR) in their inaugural meeting. In compiling an 8-10 record, GSU defeated seven of the nine schools in the league.
Injuries are, of course, part of any sport. But from preseason workouts throughout the season, coach Baldwin-Tener consistently wondered who was healthy enough and who was out. Three players had surgery during the season. Starting guard Ashley Watson missed 10 full games with knee surgery after the season started in December. Starting 6-foot-2 forward Haley Gerrin missed the last 10 and suffered through the others with her back injury before undergoing surgery. Power forward Ashanti Groover broke a bone in her leg and was out for the final 10 games after her surgery. Center Brittany Logan worked back into shape after sitting out last season from basketball and missed six full games early with a variety of injuries. Point guard Alisha Andrews also came back after her yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s absence, but suffered nagging injuries through the preseason and early season. And, these donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take into account the usual short-term ankle sprains, bruises and soreness. Many days, getting a full 10 to be able to practice was a problem.
RECORDS AND FIRSTS Kendra Long finished her career as the school record-holder for 3-point baskets, making 221 in her four-year career. Junior Ashley Watson will head into her senior year in 2014-15 clinging to the school career free-throw percentage record. Watson slipped to .8239 (145-of-176) to stay ahead of Marica Maddox, who shot .8235 (224-272) for her career. Long put her name in the record book as the first Georgia State Sun Belt All-Conference pick when she was chosen to the third team. The Panthers tied the school record by making 11 3-point baskets in a game (at UT Martin) in the season opener on the road.

t This was a year for tough scheduling and crazy weather. With 18 of 31 games away, GSU went one full month without a home game and had only one home game over a seven-week stretch. The game at UALR was moved from Feb. 5 to March 4 to March 5. That made four games in 12 days, but didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t count the extra day sitting on a bus for eight hours going nowhere in the ice. The road trip to Louisiana included ice and another eight-hour day on a bus traveling. The home game with Texas State was postponed due to ice in Atlanta. That game was moved from Feb. 12 to Feb. 17, giving GSU three games in six days, with one a 10 p.m. start in Troy and arriving home at 3 a.m. South Alabama was stranded in Atlanta and that game was moved from Jan. 29 to Jan. 30, giving GSU four games in 10 days.
FIVE OF A KIND t 'JWF 4USBJHIU The Panthers started the year with a five-game losing streak, including three on the road in the preseason WNIT to a trio of teams that went on to win 20 games. Then, the Panthers won four of out five, losing only to No. 22 Georgia. That five-game stretch was followed by losses in four of the next five. In January, the Panthers surged with a five-game winning streak, with three coming on the road. But, the regular season ended with a five-game losing streak.

SEASON REVIEW
GEORGIA STATE PANTHERS
ITâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S A LONG SHOT Senior Kendra Long had a great name for being an outstanding 3-point shooter. In her four years at GSU, she became the only player in school history with four 50 or more 3-point basketsmade seasons. Her 221 3-point baskets made moved her into first place on the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all-time list. Long made six treys in a game vs. Towson on Feb. 14, 2013 and made five 3-point shots in a game five times, so she is obviously a marked target for opposing defenses. She finished her career with 67 double-figure scoring games. Long scored 1,269 points to become the 21st 1,000point scorer in GSU history and the 13th to top 1,200. She played 104 games, meaning she became the seventh player in school history to start 100 games. With 209 steals, Long finished fifth on the all-time list.

In a game with 11 lead changes, Georgia State dropped an 84-80 decision to UT Martin in the opening round of the Preseason WNIT Friday night. Visiting Georgia State led by three at 10:30 (61-58) and forged back ahead at 71-70 with five minutes left, but UT Martin pulled away from 75-74 with 2:40 to claim the win. The game was tied 40-40 at halftime. Georgia State tied its school record with 11 3-point baskets made and stopped UT Martinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Heather Butlerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s NCAA record of 3-point games at 80 as she was 0-for-5. The Panthers played without starting 6-foot-4 center, Brittany Logan, who had to sign a waiver for eligibility and will join the team for the next game. Georgia State shot 49.1% for the game, hitting 26 of 53 shots, including 11 of 24 3-point baskets. The Panthers hurt themselves by making just 17 of 27 free throws (63%) and missing the front ends of three one-and-one opportunities in the final 10 minutes. The new rules for 2013-14 emphasize touch fouls more and there were 51 fouls called, 26 on Georgia State and 25 on UT Martin. Hayley Gerrin was the only Panther to foul out, but Andrews, Long and Ashley Watson all hung on with four fouls. UT Martin was able to capitalize on center Loganâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s absence, grabbing 15 offensive rebounds on GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s post players, while leading the game total 43-29. In addition to Logan, the Panthers were also without 6-2 forward Ashanti Groover (injury). Facing a team with two of the top 10 scorers in the NCAA, each averaging almost 23 points a game, GSU held Heather Butler to 14 points and stopped her 3-point streak, while Jasmine Newsome finished strong down the stretch with 9 of 13 free throws to net her average of 24 points on 7-of-16 field goals. UT Martin has been to three consecutive NCAA postseason tournaments. The see-saw game was tight from start to finish as each team had its largest lead of the game of six points. UT Martinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 83.3% free throw shooting (11-of-13) in the second half was a key down the stretch.
One game after tying a school record with 11 3-point baskets and scoring 80 points, Georgia State went cold from the field in falling, 74-49, to North Carolina A&T in the consolation bracket of the Preseason WNIT The Panthers shot just 26.3 percent in the first half and 34 percent for the game, including just 1 of 9 outside the 3-point line. Sloppy ballhandling led to 23 turnovers on offense. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Well, there are no magic plays you can call,â&#x20AC;? coach Sharon Baldwin-Tener said postgame. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have to execute the plays, move the ball to your teammates and hit the open shots when you have them. Tonight, the defense was equally poor. We did not do an adequate job of pressuring them and we struggled early on the boards. And, we couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make free throws.â&#x20AC;? North Carolina A&T, a 22-win team last year and 1-1 now, shot 50 percent in the second half and 46 percent for the game in scoring its 74 points. Georgia State (0-2) got 10 points from center Brittany Logan on 5-of-6 shots in the paint, while just missing a doubledouble with nine rebounds. Ashley Watson added nine points and Miranda Smith came off the bench to score eight points. Leading scorer Kendra Long was hampered by three first-half fouls, picking up a fourth with 18:31 left, so played just 20 minutes and scored just three points on 1-for-8 shooting and 0 for 3 outside the 3-point line. Georgia State led early at 7-6 with 13:50 in the first half, but went cold and A&T went on a 10-0 run to open a 16-7 advantage at 7:44. The Aggies built an 11-point lead, but GSU cut it to 22-16 with 5:10 to go in the half. Then, the game really turned as GSU never scored again in the half and A&T closed with a 12-0 run to open a 34-16 halftime lead. To start the second half, GSU closed to 34-21 with five quick points before A&T scored 13 straight points to take full command at 47-21 with 14:24 to play. For the game, Georgia State did end up with a rebound advantage of 39-34, by pulling down 16 rebounds, including 12 offensive boards in the second. half.
Georgia State led for the first 39 minutes of the game, but in the final minute saw host Stephen F. Austin rally to claim a 66-60 win after getting its first lead of the game with 48 seconds left. This was the final game of the preseason Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s National Invitation Tournament. Georgia State was whistled for 36 fouls as host SFA shot 38 free throws. Two Panthers fouled out. Host SFA had just 21 fouls called and GSU shot just 20 free throws. Kayla Nolan scored a personal-best 25 points and added seven rebounds to lead GSU (0-3). Nolan hit 9-of-16 field goal attempts and 6-of-8 free throws, while adding a teambest three steals. Kendra Long added 11 points, but shot just 5-of-17. Georgia State was up by 12 points at 55-43 with 7:01 left in the game, when SFA began a comeback. GSU was leading 60-52 with 3:31 to go, but would not score again. The host Lady Lumberjacks cashed in and finally gained its first lead of the game at 61-60 on a follow-up of her own miss by Roberts with 48 seconds left. Visiting GSU jumped out to a 7-0 lead in the first four-plus minutes and built a 12-point lead at 23-11 with 4:29 to go in the first half. An unusual three possessions on one trip down the floor netted SFA five points as it cut the advantage from 24-16 to 24-21. A field goal, an off-ball foul resulted in two free throws and a foul on the offensive rebound of the missed free throw netted two more free throws. Georgia State led at the half 26-23. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I can only be proud of the team and the playersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; effort today,â&#x20AC;? coach Sharon Baldwin-Tener said after the game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After the tough loss yesterday, the team came out ready to play and it is too bad we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the win to reward the effort. If you foul 3,000 times, like I guess we did, because it seems like that was how many were called, you hurt your chances to win. We can play a lot better, but the effort and attitude were there. We obviously didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t finish off what we started and that hurts, but the team played with fire today and if they do that every game, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be alright.â&#x20AC;?

Georgia Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home opener was much the theme of its previous Preseason WNIT games: get an early double-figure lead, but not make the needed plays at the end to earn a win against a good team. UCF (4-0) overcame a first-half 12-point deficit and a 43-38 halftime deficit to claim its 85-77 road win over Georgia State (0-4) before 734 fans. In a game with six lead changes and four ties, the score was 69-69 with 5:12 to go. But, UCFâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Briahanna Jackson scored eight more points in that span en route to her career-tying 34 points. Her 3-point basket with 2:50 took it from 73-71 to 76-71 and set the pace for a UCF win. Jackson, the 5-foot-4 sophomore from Tampa, Fla., also added 10 rebounds and three steals in her impressive evening. Forward Stephanie Taylor added 14 points, while freshman Zykira Jackson came off the bench to score 13 points with 3-of-4 3-point baskets, all from the deep left corner spot. Georgia State roared out to a 10-6 lead after just over three minutes and saw UCF close to within two at 18-16 with 13:55 in the first half. The host Panthers went on a 10-0 run, sparked by treys from Kendra Long and Alisha Andrews, to make it 2816 with 9:17 in the opening half. The Panthers maintained the lead the entire first half after breaking a 10-10 tied. In the second half, GSU maintained its lead, upping it to 49-40 with 17:52 on the clock. GSU was up 51-46 with 15:25 when UCF rallied with five straight to tie the game at 51 with 14:35 left on a 3-pointer from the corner by Lewis. The GSU bench scored 27 of GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 77 points, while UCF got 17 from the bench with 13 from Lewis alone. A key stat proved to be UCFâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s final 51-40 rebound advantage. GSU got off 77 shots to 59 for UCF, but made just 27.5 percent in the second half on 11-of-40. GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defense did force 19 turnovers and make nine steals.After making six 3-pointers in the first half, GSU was just 2-of-14 behind the arc in the second half to finish 8-for-29 (27.6%). UCF hit 8-of-19 treys, including 4-of-8 in the second half. GSU played without injured starting guard Ashley Watson and ill guard Mariam Hannoun. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We did some good things early, but we certainly didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t finish well,â&#x20AC;? coach Sharon Baldwin-Tener said.
After leading by as many as 14 points in the first half and leading 61-60 with 5:56 to play, Georgia State saw host Western Carolina score the final 14 points to claim a 74-61 win. GSU and WCU had battled through 13 lead changes and nine ties in a see-saw battle. The decisive spurts were similar at the end of both halves. GSU led 32-22 with 2:56 in the first half and WCU closed with a 13-2 run to take a 35-34 halftime lead. Then, with the 5:56, WCU erased the GSU lead with the 14-0 run. The key points were at the free throw line where host WCU shot 28 and made 18, while the visitors only got to shoot 11 and made 8. GSU point guard Alisha Andrews had three fouls the first half and fouled out, while three other players persevered with four fouls. Andrews did have 10 assists in her 29 minutes of action. It marked the fourth time of the five games this season Georgia State has lost a double-digit lead to lose a game. GSU started quickly with a 14-4 run in the first four minutes of the game. The visiting Panthers jumped it to 12 points after 10 minutes at 21-9. GSU continued a double-digit lead for the next five minutes, growing the margin as large as 14 points at 29-15 with 5:18 in the first half. WCU made 6-of-7 3-point baskets in the last five minutes of the first half to take its first lead of the game at 35-34 going into halftime. In the second half, Georgia State got the lead on a 3-point by Moss to start the half and had a three-point lead at 44-41 through the first four minutes. GSU led at 51-50 at 11:13 and was tied at 54 and 56 as the teams approached the eightminute mark. Kendra Longâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s old-fashioned three-point play gave the Panthers a 59-56 lead at 7:12. Mossâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; jumper at 5:56 gave GSU the lead again at 61-60 and proved to be GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last basket. WCU ended with a 39-36 rebound advantage and blocked six GSU shots. WCU shot 52 percent in the second half on 13-of-25 and made 11-of-17 free throws. GSU shot 45 percent the first half and 41 percent for the game to go with 73% from the free throw line (8-of-11).
Down 23 points on its home court with 16:26 to play, Georgia State staged the biggest comeback in school history to post an 87-84 win over Belmont. Trailing 48-32 at halftime and then 57-34 with 16:26 to play, host Georgia State combined a defense that produced 21 steals with an offense that scored 55 second-half points. To do that, the Panthers substituted 12 players in and out, utilizing five guards for a full-court press at times, or attacking with the post players to get the first win of the season (1-5). There was no one hero, but what proved to be the nails in the coffin were a pair of free throws with 24.9 seconds left by senior guard Kendra Long. Long also calmly made two free throws with 55.9 seconds left in the game. Her 16 second-half points gave Long 23 points to tie her personal-best game . Junior 4-foot-11 point guard Alisha Andrews stepped up with 22 points, six steals and five assists. Andrews tied her personalbest with six 3-point baskets today, hitting 6-of-9 shots from beyond the arc. Junior guard Kayla Nolan came off the bench to score 11 points and make five steals. It was her drive to the basket with 31 seconds that gave Georgia State its first lead at 85-84. The game had been tied at 27 with 7:36 in the first half, but GSU had never led. In the first half, Georgia State closed to 31-29 with six minutes to go in the first half, but hot Belmont went on a 17-3 run to close out the half and take a 48-32 lead at the midway break. Belmont shot 57 percent in that first half and held a 23-16 rebound advantage. In the second half, Belmont got off to a quick 9-2 start to make it 57-34 at 16:26 and appeared on its way to an easy win. But, GSU upped the defensive pressure and began to produce 15 of its 21 second-half turnovers. Georgia State shot 10-for-21 outside the 3-point line (47.6%), one shy of the season best, while converting 13-of-15 free throws (86.7%). The Panthers made their final eight free throws, all key points. Georgia State attacked inside, scoring 42 points in the paint today and 36 points off turnovers.

Freshman Haley Gerrin scored 23 points, including back-toback three-point lay-up and free throw plays in the final 90 seconds, to give Georgia State a 65-63 victory over Jacksonville State in the opening game of the Georgia State Invitational. The back-and-forth game saw 11 ties and eight lead changes. Gerrin, a 6-2 post player from Clarkesville, Ga., went 8-for-11 from the field and 7-for-9 at the free throw line and also pulled down nine rebounds in just 24 minutes. Her previous high in her first five college games was eight points. Gerrin was called into heavier duty since starting center Brittany Logan was injured and unable to play. GSU also played without starting guard Ashley Watson for a fourth-straight game. After Georgia Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Alisha Andrews tied the game at 56-all on a driving layup with 1:58 to play, Peyton Hisel made her third straight field goal for JSU to put the Gamecocks ahead 58-56 with 1:35 left. Then Gerrin gave the Panthers the lead for good with a layup and free throw with 1:23 to play. After a JSU turnover, Gerrin rebounded her own missed shot and sank the layup plus the free throw for a four point lead with 33 seconds left. Georgia State had to withstand one last run by the Gamecocks. Candace Morton, who finished with 21 points and 12 rebounds, nailed a three-pointer with 17.9 seconds left to cut GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lead to one, but Andrews answered with two free throws with 13.2 seconds on the clock. Morton managed to get off another three-pointer with 6.8 seconds left. She missed the shot but was fouled, putting her at the line with a chance to tie. But she made only two of three, so Georgia State still led 64-63. After Andrews made one of two free throws for a 65-63 lead, Kelly Naughton missed a final shot at the buzzer. Sophomore Gaby Moss came off the bench to add nine points and six rebounds. The Sun Beltâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading 3-point shooter went 2-for-4 outside the arc today and is 10-for-18 now on the season. Senior Kendra Long added eight points, six assists, three steals and four rebounds despite foul trouble. GSU shot 19-of-25 from the line (76%), while JSU hit only 17-of-25 (68%) for deciding points.
Georgia State went toe-to-toe with No. 22 Georgia, but the undefeated Bulldogs grabbed the lead in the final 10 minutes and held off the Panthers for a 70-58 victory in the championship game of the Georgia State Invitational Sunday. Host Georgia State led by as many as eight points in the first half (22-14), led at halftime (37-33) and held a 51-44 lead with 12 minutes to play. Georgia got the lead back for good at 53-51 with nine minutes to play and broke away from a 58-55 lead with 5:45 to go. That 12-0 run from 12:07 to 6:15 when Georgia erased the 51-44 defecit with a 12-0 run to gain the lead at 56-51 was key as host GSU went almost six minutes without a basket. It was just a two-possession game with 4:30 to play (61-57) and 3:00 to play (63-57). Georgia State played without two starters (center Brittany Logan and guard Ashley Watson), lost center Maryam Dogo to fouls at the 8-minute mark, but battled on. The game saw nine lead changes and five ties. UGA pulled away with GSU missed shots at the end to finish with a 4540 rebound advantage. Georgiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s scoring came inside as the taller Bulldogs netted 36 points in the paint to 16 for Georgia State. UGA also converted 25 points off turnovers with 14 steals today. Kendra Long led GSU (2-6) with 22 points and a career-high 10 rebounds. Alisha Andrews had nine points, four assists and five rebounds. Long was 4-of-7 outside the 3-point line today. GSU hit 6-of-15 3-point shots in the first half, but just 2-of-10 in the second half. Tournament Most Outstanding Player Tiaria Griffin scored 14 points for Georgia, which improved to 8-0 on the season. Shacobia Barbee had a double-double for the Bulldogs with 12 points and 14 rebounds, along with six assists and seven steals. In the consolation game, George Washington raced past Jacksonville State, 100-71. The All-Tournament team included Candace Morton of Jacksonville State, Megan Nipe of George Washington, Hayley Gerrin and Kendra Long of Georgia State and Shacobia Barbee of Georgia. Georgiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tiaria Griffin was named Most (2-5) Valuable Player.

Georgia State posted a 60-54 win over Kennesaw State as senior guard Kendra Long scored her 1,000th career point with 41.3 seconds left on a pair of key free throws. Georgia State, winners of three of its last four games, led most of the way but could never really put the Owls away. GSU was up by eight with 6:28 to play (45-37) but could never get the lead into double figures. Kennesaw made three 3-point baskets from that point and closed to 58-54 with 42.9 seconds. KSU quickly fouled Long to send her to the line for a 1-and-1 free throw situation and she swished them both for her 12th point of the game and 1,000th of her career. GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cool shooting forced it to rely on a defense that forced 21 turnovers and made 12 steals. The Panthers hit 25.8 percent in the first half, 8-for-31 and missed 10 lay-ups. But, in the second half, GSU scored 41 points and hit 53.3% on 16 of 30 to stay on top. GSU cashed in with 9-of-12 free throws. Freshman Haley Gerrin scored 14 points, grabbed seven rebounds, blocked two shots and made two steals in filling in for the injured starting center. Gaby Moss came on the second half to score all of her 13 points, including a big 3-pointer with 57 seconds left to make it 58-51.Moss, the Sun Beltâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading 3-point shooter at 50% on the year, knocked down 2-of-3 tonight. Moss scored seven straight points in a minute run from 9:13 to 8:10. GSU scored 36 points in the paint and got 16 points off of the 21 turnovers forced. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m proud of the kids for coming away with three wins in the four games and playing their hearts out against Georgia, so I know they are tired,â&#x20AC;? head coach Sharon Baldwin-Tener said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I told the kids in the first half to stop pressing and just relax and play basketball because we counted 10 missed layups in the first half â&#x20AC;?. Kennesaw State (1-6) got 16 points from freshman Deandra Sawyers and 11 rebounds and eight points from Kristina Wells. Georgia State remains unbeaten in the all-time series with Kennesaw State, now holding a 6-0 series lead.

Georgia State, down three starters, got a final basket from the corner from Gaby Moss to earn a 56-55 win on Sunday. Georgia State led from 9:58 to 1:19 on the second-half clock, but Kent State rallied to gain the lead on two free throws by Ashley Evans at 5.3 seconds. A time out by KSU and a time out by GSU then led to an inbounds play to quick point guard Andrews who streaked as if going down the lane for a lay-up and found Moss open in the corner. Her shot nestled through the rim, the refs reviewed the clock and GSU had its fourth win in its last five games. The soft touch of Moss has seen her make 14-of-27 rainbows beyond the 3-point arc this season. The game had seven ties and seven lead changes with KSU up 22-20 at the half. Kent Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest lead was at 33-27 with 12:57 and GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coach had gotten a technical. But, GSU scrapped angrily back to tie at 35 with 10:20 to go. The Panthers continued the up-tempo attack and built a six-point lead at 7:40 at 43-37. That finished a 16-4 run. GSU maintained its lead at 48-42 with 5:47, but a 9-3 run pulled Kent State even at 1:19. A Harper lay-up put GSU ahead, a field goal and free throw by Nolan put GSU back up 54-53 at 38.4. Kent State missed a trey with six seconds left, but in the battle for the rebound, GSU was called for the foul and KSU got the two free throws from Evans to re-gain the lead. Georgia Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bench scored 37 of its 56 points. Junior Kayla Nolan scored 16 points on 6-of-9 field goals and 4-of-5 free throws. Moss, who leads the Sun Belt in 3-point field-goal percentage (52%), added nine points. Starting center Brittany Logan was home with an injury and back-up center Haley Gerrin got hurt with five minutes to go in the first half. Starting guard Ashley Watson was also back in Atlanta, meaning Moss and Nolan were getting more time as a result.. Georgia State held a 38-27 rebound advantage. GSU shot 52.2% in the second half (12-of-23) after 26.9% in the first half. GSU leads the Sun Belt in free throw percentage (.708) and upped that today with an 80% performance on 16-of-20. And, those 16-of-20 free throws were all made by the bench as the five starters were 0-for-1 from the free throw line..
Host San Jose State broke from a 49-49 halftime tie with an 11-0 run to start the second half and went on to post a 95-81 win over Georgia State Wednesday at The Event Center. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s said teams can live by the 3-point shot and die by the 3-point shot and tonight SJSU was living large. San Jose State hit a school-record 14 3-point shots with eight in the second half in posting its sixth 90-plus point game and improving to 5-5 on the season. SDSU was 14-of-28 (50%) from beyond the arc for the game, but an impressive 8-of-14 (57%) in the second half. The Spartans improve to 4-1 at home. Georgia State closed back to 80-72 with 3:28 but couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t complete a comeback. The Panthers struggled with their shooting in the second half, making just 13-of-43 at 30.2%. That lowered the game shooting percentage to 37.9% on 33-of-87. The teams traded the lead seven times and there were six ties before SJSU got control in the second half. GSU held a 52-43 rebound advantage. The Panthersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; defense forced 23 turnovers and had 14 steals on the evening. Georgia State got off 11 more shots (87-to-76) than San Jose State, shot more free throws (16-to-13), but misfired too often. San Jose junior guard Rebecca Woodberry was the star with seven 3-point baskets, five in the first half, while scoring 25 points. It was her fourth game this season with 5 or more 3-pointers. The game started with two quick treys by San Jose State and a 10-4 lead. But, GSU immediately answered and gained a 15-12 lead at 13:32. Two more treys by Woodberry helped SJSU open a 23-17 advantage at 11:22, but GSU closed back to 29-28 at 7:46. A pair of Ashanti Groover lay-ups tied the game at 41 at 3:55 in the half. GSU led twice more at 47-45 and 49-47, but Classye James scored with 10 seconds in the half to tie the game at 49 at halftime. The second half started with 3-pointers by James, then Britta Hall, then Woodberry, then Cunningan in the first four minutes. A fifth trey by Cunningan made it 68-54 with 13:13 on the clock. SJSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest lead was 75-55 at 9:53, but GSU whittled that back to eight at 80-72 with 3:28. For Georgia State, this was a homecoming game for starter Ashley Watson. The junior from Archbishop MItty in San Jose had been out since Nov. 15 with a knee injury and returned tonight off the bench to score eight points and make five assists. Junior center Brittany Logan also returned after missing four games with an injury and added nine points and seven (3-6) rebounds in her reserve role.

Host Santa Clara shot 51.6% from the field and 87% from the free throw line in rolling to a 87-68 win over Georgia State Friday night. The Broncos shot 64% on 30-of-47 in opening an 81-53 lead at 7:15 as the reserves couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t finish that pace. Santa Clara started hot by making 10 of its first 15 shots in opening a 22-14 lead at 10:38. Georgia State scrambled back to close to 27-24 at 6:26, 29-26 at 5:46 and 31-28 at 5:09. But, Santa Clara burst away with a 8-1 run to make it 39-28 at 2:48. Santa Clara built a 48-34 halftime lead and shot 56.7% in the opening half (17-of-30). When Santa Clara started the second half with more hot shooting and a 16-8 start that made it 64-42 wtih more than 13 minutes to play. The Broncos got the lead to 28 points at 81-53 at 7:15. Georgia State (4-8) couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hit from the floor (26-of-75, 34.7%) or the free throw line (12-of-19, 63%). Haley Gerrin led GSU with 15 points (7-of 12 FG) and six rebounds, while Ashlee Cole added 14 points off the bench. Kendra Long added 11 more points. Kayla Nolan also added 11 more points, including a 3-point basket. For Nolan, that makes four consecutive 3-point baskets made in the two West Coast games. Unfortunately, San Jose native and Archbishop Mitty alum Ashley Watson was unable to play (knee injury). The junior starter for GSU had undergone early December surgery and returned to play Wednesday at San Jose. But, the knee was too sore to play again on Friday. Santa Clara (4-7) got 24 points by 6-foot-4 center Ruta Zurauskyte, who was averaging seven per game coming in, but hit 9-for-12 FG and 6-for-6 FT. Nici Gilday added 18 points on 8-of-15. Georgia State got off 75 shots, 13 more than Santa Clara, but the missed close shots in the paint proved costly. Georgia Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defense forced 15 turnovers and made seven steals, scoring 15 points off turnovers.

In the historic first Sun Belt Conference game in Georgia State womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball history, GSU celebrated with a 85-77 win over Troy on New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day afternoon. All five starters scored in double figures for Georgia State (5-8, 1-0). Freshman forward Haley Gerrin scored 17 points (7-of-12 field goals), had nine rebounds and blocked two shots. Sophomore guard Gaby Moss poured in 16 points on 4-of-5 3-point baskets, while grabbing six rebounds. The opening game in Sun Belt play seemed like it was going to be an easy task as the host Panthers led by 13 points twice in the second half, the last at 69-56 with 8:23 left. GSU still led by 10 points at 73-63 with 5:19 remaining. But, it would not be that simple. Visiting Troy, one of the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top-scoring teams, averaging 85 points a game, scored 10 straight points to tie the game at 73 with 2:03 to play. During that 10-0 run, the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fifth-leading scorer, Joanna Harden, made eight-for-eight free throws. GSU freshman Haley Gerrin scored with 1:45 to put GSU up 77-75, but Troyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Kourtney Coleman answered that at 1:25 to knot it back at 77. Gerrin again made the big play for GSU, grabbing an offensive rebound and scoring again with 1:00 left. The 4-foot-11 dynamo Andrews then made her sixth steal and dished her seventh assist to Long, who scored to make it 79-75 GSU with 57 seconds. Troyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Harden scored her 23rd point to make it 79-77 with 34.9 seconds. With 30 seconds, GSU senior Kendra Long stepped to the line with the one-and-one and knocked down her two free throws to make it 81-77. Gerrin made her final big play of the game by blocking a Troy attempt at the other end. Andrews nailed four consecutive free throws in the final 17 seconds to put the game on ice and allow the celebration to begin for Georgia State in the 85-77 win. Georgia State held a 56-53 rebound advantage. The Panthers garnered 22 points off fast break baskets.
The Georgia State womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball team lost its first road game in the Sun Belt Conference, falling at South Alabama, 65-57, on Saturday afternoon at the Mitchell Center. Georgia State was its own worst enemy today, shooting just 30 percent in the second half (20-of-63) and 31 percent for the game (20-of-63). GSU was ineffective outside the arc, making just 4-of-22 attempts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is hard to win a ball game, home or away, shooting 30 percent and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on us for the easy missed shots,â&#x20AC;? coach Sharon Baldwin-Tener said. Host South Alabama, who leads the Sun Belt making seven 3-point baskets a game, hit 8-of-17 today and that proved to be a difference-maker, too. Georgia State (5-9, 1-1) got 17 points from Kayla Nolan (7-of-17) with 12 points (4-of-13) and eight rebounds from Kendra Long. Gaby Moss added nine points, but hit just 1-of6 outside the arc, well below her 47% rate. GSU had 13 steals and forced 21 turnover. South Alabama (4-8, 2-0) won for a second straight time at home in the Sun Belt. Rachel Cumbo, averaging nine points a game, scored 20 points today, hitting 4-of-4 treys in the first half and 4-of-6 for the game. The first half saw six lead changes and four ties, but GSU last led at 18-17 at 11:53. GSU trailed just 24-22 at 6:34, but USA finished on a 9-4 run over the final span of the first half to build a 33-24 lead on Cumbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fourth trey. USA led 33-28 at halftime. The key run of the second half came at 12:51 after GSU closed to 43-39. Host USA hit three consecutive 3-point baskets to open a 52-41 lead at 8:37.. South Alabama had its largest lead at 58-45 at 4:54, but GSU wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite done. The Panthers clawed back to six at 60-54 with still 2:18 to play. A 3-pointer by Long made it 61-57 with 58 seconds. USAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Breanna Hall was forced to shoot wellguarded from the baseline as the shot clock was at :01 and it went it to push it back to six points with 28 seconds.
Georgia State committed a season-high 28 turnovers in falling to Western Kentucky 80-59 on Wednesday afternoon in front of 2,692. The visiting Panthers shot just 30% in the first half and 35% for the game to compound the 28 turnovers as the host Hilltoppers shot 50% in improving to 10-4. WKU shot well early to turn a 17-14 lead at 9:50 into a 30-17 lead by 5:50 in the first half. It was 41-30 at halftime. WKU roared out in the second half with a 7-0 run and 15-4 burst to make it 56-34 at 15:37 and the only thing left to decide was the final score. To start the second half, host Western Kentucky made 13 of its first 14 shots from the field, including 3-for-3 outside the arc. GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bench actually played 126 minutes and the five starters just 74 minutes with foul trouble, injuries and ineffectiveness. WKU got 74 minutes from its bench today as well as the reserves of both teams played a lot of minutes. Georgia State (5-10, 1-2) got 15 points from senior guard Kendra Long. She saw her 19-consecutive free throws made streak end in the second half with a miss. Alisha Andrews added nine points and four assists despite four fouls. Western Kentucky (10-4, 2-1) was led by 18 points and six rebounds from Chastity Gooch. Four other Hilltoppers were in double figures with Micah Jones next with 14 points. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fight like I would have liked today among other things I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like,â&#x20AC;? head coach Sharon Baldwin-Tener said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Goodness, we have to take better care of the basketball. The game was really simple, they made shots early and we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the ball in the basket. When a team makes 13 of 14 shots on you to start a half, that spells trouble. Right now, it is more about us and what we are capable of than the opponent. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not happy with what I saw today.â&#x20AC;? Georgia State did hold a 44-30 rebound advantage with 18 offensive rebounds. The Panther defense really wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t effective today, but the team did end up with 11 steals and 16 turnovers forced.

Georgia State shocked first-place Arkansas State 76-74 while making nine 3-point baskets. The visiting Panthers, missing three former starters with injuries, used three new starters in surprising previously unbeaten ASU (4-1 Sun Belt, 10-7 overall).GSU shot 54.8% in building a 42-38 halftime lead and finished at 48%. GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only senior, guard Kendra Long, led with 23 points, including 5-of-6 3-point baskets. Long made two clutch free throws with 36.5 seconds. Junior 4-foot-11 point guard Alisha Andrews added 13 points with 3-of-5 behind the arc to go with four assist and three steals. Sophomore Gaby Moss came off the bench to add 11 points, including 4-of-5 free throws with a pair with 25.6 seconds being key. Freshman Jamila Mayfieldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first NCAA start resulted in five points, five rebounds and three blocks in just 17 minutes with foul trouble. Maryam Dogo added seven points and seven rebounds in filling in for the two injured post players, 6-foot-2 Haley Gerrin and 6-foot-4 Brittany Logan.. Georgia State (6-10, 2-2) controlled the tempo most of the game, despite nine lead changes and six ties.GSU has played three of its first four Sun Belt games on the road, including this first-ever game with the Red Wolves of Arkansas State. ASU made its run to remain unbeaten in the Sun Belt, opening its largest lead of the game at 58-53 at 10:03. But, two 3-pointers by Long and another by Andrews pulled GSU back in front 62-60 at the 8:00 mark. For a brief while with five minutes to go, it appeared neither team wanted to make the plays. GSU missed two front ends of 1-and-1 free throws and ASU missed four straight free throws. And, these were the top two free throw shooting teams in the Sun Belt, each shooting better than 70% for the season. Andrewsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 3-point shot with 3:55 surged GSU back up 69-66. But, ASU eventually tied it back at 69 with 1:39 on a free throw by Aundrea Gamble. Gamble led ASU with 24 points, making 9-10 free throws. Hanna Qedan added 16 points and 11 rebounds. The final 1:18 saw Moss make two free throws, Mayfield a FT, Long two free throws and Moss two more free throws to stave off the Red Wolves. GSU missed its two big 6-foot-4 and 6-foot-2 post players as ASU held a 46-36 rebound advantage with 20 offensive rebounds. The Panthers limited ASU to 36.2% shooting, despite ASU making seven 3-pointers and 38% outside the arc.
Gaby Moss was again the final hero for Georgia State as her basket with two seconds left provided the winning margin in the Panthers 61-59 come-from-behind win over Sun Belt preseason favorite, UALR. Down 14 points in the first half and 13 points in the second half (49-36 at 11:04), GSU fought back to tie the game at 57 with 1:50 on two free throws by Moss. Kayla Nolanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s putback of her miss with 42 seconds gave GSU the lead. But, UALRâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Taylor Ford made two free throws with 11.5 seconds to knot it back at 59. GSU worked the ball inside for a shot and as the ball caromed off the backboard, Moss came slashing across the baseline in midair to grab the ball and bank it back in. After a time out, UALR couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get a shot off and GSU had its victory. Rallies seem to be the norm for Georgia State as they rallied to upset previously unbeaten Arkansas State on Tuesday, 7674. The Panthers came from a school-record 23 points down to beat Belmont, 87-84, on Nov. 27 in the Sports Arena.. For Moss, it was her second game-winning shot after draining one at the buzzer to beat Kent State on Dec. 8. Georgia State (7-10, 3-2 Sun Belt) was led by junior 4-foot11point guard Alisha Andrews who scored 22 points, 16 coming in the second half with three 3-point baskets. The lightning quick Andrews added five steals and four assists, while shooting 8-for-12.. UALR (8-8, 3-3) was led by junior guard Taylor Gault with 21 points on 10-of-14 shooting. Junior forward Kiera Clark added 18 points and 10 rebounds. Georgia State shot 51% from the field for the game (24-of47) against the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best defense, but made just 7-of-17 free throws despite leading the league at 71% from the line. UALR shot 47%, but just 41.7% in the second half, while making just 9-of-19 free throws. Georgia State held UALR to 27 points in the second half. UALR led by seven points at 57-50 with 3:25 to play. Nolan drained a key 3-pointer from the top of the key to energize the comeback. Andrews got a rebound and went coast-to-coast to lay it in and make it just a two-point deficit with 2:17. An offensive rebound by Moss, who was fouled, sent her to the line for two free throws at 1:50 to tie the game for the sixth time. UALR held a 34-23 rebound advantage, grabbing 15 offensive caroms. Georgia Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defense (averaging 9.3 steals) came away with 10 today and forced 21 UALR turnovers. For charity, coach Baldwin-Tener went bare foot today.
GSU won its third straight by coming from nine points down and winning in OT 72-67 over Louisiana-Lafayette. For the second-place Panthers of GSU, this is becoming the norm. Down nine at 51-42 at the 14:00 mark, GSU began clawing back. After getting it back to a one-point deficit at 5:24, at 4:44 and again at 2:36, Georgia State finally tied it at 62 with 23.8 seconds on a pair of free throws by Haley Gerrin. GSU made a steal and had a chance to win in regulation, but a shot with two seconds left bounced off the rim. In overtime, GSU got the lead quickly with two free throws by Kayla Nolan at 4:43 and two more by Brittany Logan at 4:00 to make it 66-62. UL-Lafayette closed within one at 66-65 at 2:00, but Ashlee Cole made two free throws. Kia Wildridge scored for UL-Lafayette at 1:10, but Cole scored with 1:00 to make it 70-67. Two final free throws by Long sealed the third straight win for GSU. GSU was 8-for-8 from the free throw line in the OT. The leaders for Georgia State (8-10, 4-2 Sun Belt) were mainly from the bench. Logan, the junior 6-foot-4 center, came on to score 16 points and grab 15 rebounds for her second doubledouble of the year (14/12 earlier). Sophomore guard Ashlee Cole was inserted and added a career-high 16 points with 6-10 shooting and a pair of treys.Freshman 6-foot-2 forward Haley Gerrin came off the bench to produce her double-double of 13 points and 10 rebounds. Georgia Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bench scored 53 of its 72 points. GSU starting guard, and only senior, Kendra Long added 10 points and hit two 3-pointers to reach 200 3-point baskets for her career. The Panthers shot 18-21 from the free throw line for the game (85.7%) after hitting 51.7% from the field in slipping into halftime with a 37-36 lead. GSU finished at 44.6% from the field for the game. Georgia State held a 43-32 rebound advantage this evening, grabbing 15 offensive rebounds against the Raginâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Cajuns. The game was tied 10 times UL-Lafayette (10-7, 3-3) got 16 points and nine rebounds from forward Brooklyn Arceneaux. Georgia State sits one-game out of first place in the Sun Belt now at 4-2, one game behind Arkansas State (5-1), a team GSU beat in Jonesboro, Ark earlier by two points. The Panthers are tied with Western Kentucky in second place among the 10 Sun Belt teams.

Georgia State sped to its fourth straight win, topping the University of Louisiana at Monroe, 77-66, on Saturday. The visiting Panthers started strong in building a 45-29 halftime lead and never let the lead get out of double digits the rest of the way. Georgia State (9-10, 5-2 Sun Belt) was led by senior guard Kendra Long with 21 points, including three 3-point baskets. Junior center Brittany Logan had another double-double with 12 points and 11 rebounds. Georgia State built its first double-digit lead just eight minutes into the game at 22-12 at 12:09. ULM got it back to nine points, 36-27, at 5:49, but then GSU closed with a 9-2 spurt to gain a 45-29 halftime advantage. GSU shot 51.4% in the first half and dominated the boards, 26-15 in the opening stanza. The key run in the first half was when GSU erased a 20-29 deficit at 6:29 with a 13-0 run to make it 33-29 at 3:58. In the second half, Georgia State had the lead up to 18 points twice, the last at 62-44 at the nine-minute mark left to play. It was 75-59 with 1:50 as the reserves let the lead slip a bit. ULM ((7-12, 3-4) got 18 points and 10 rebounds from Ashleigh Simmons to go with 11 points from Sharnice Brooks. Georgia State was whistled for 28 fouls today, with just 13 called on the home Warhawks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A conference road win is always a good feeling,â&#x20AC;? head coach Sharon Baldwin-Tener said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We shared the ball well, shot the ball well, rebounded the ball well and played good defense in the first half, but we were way too nonchalant in the second half.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;ULM is a good basketball team and I am proud to come to Louisiana and win two games on this trip,â&#x20AC;? Baldwin-Tener added. Georgia State finished with a 49-41 rebound advantage with 17 offensive rebounds. The Panthers had five blocked shots and held ULM to 27.9% shooting for the game (19-of-58). GSU, the Sun Beltâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top free throw shooting team at 70.4%, upped that today by making 15-of-19 free throws (78.9%). Long leads at 83.9% (52 of 62).
Alisha Andrews scored 18 points and Brittany Logan had her third straight double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds to lead the Georgia State womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball team to its fifth straight win with a 63-55 victory over South Alabama. Georgia State improved to 10-10 overall and 6-2 in the Sun Belt Conference, tied with Western Kentucky for second place in the league standings. South Alabama dropped to 6-12, 4-4 SBC. It also avenged GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s earlier season loss at South Alabama.This is Georgia Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first five-game winning streak since a six-game streak in 2009-10. Andrews, the 4-11 point guard, was 8-for-11 from the field with two 3-pointers while contributing five assists and three steals. She leads the Sun Belt with her 96 assists. Georgia State built a 31-16 halftime lead, thanks to a 12-0 run to turn a 10-8 deficit into a 20-10 lead. In the second half, the host Panthers built that to a game-high 24 points at 44-20 with 15:04. But, the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top 3-point shooting team wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done. South Alabama then began a run with five 3-pointers and had closed all the way back to 58-53 with 1:43 left. An assist on an inbounds play from Andrews to a cutting Kayla Nolan resulted in a lay-up and free throw to put GSU back up by eight, 61-53, with 1:22. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The first half defense might have been the best half of team defense weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve played all season,â&#x20AC;? coach said. She was speaking of the defense that held South Alabama to just 16 points and 19.4% shooting on 6-of-31, including just 1-of-13 behind the arc in that first half. The game had been postponed a day due to the snow in Atlanta and the school was still closed today as the game was played. South Alabama had to spend their first night on the bus trying to get to their hotel in Buckhead in an adventure theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll never forget. GSU scored 42 points in the paint today, got 15 fast-break points and got 20 points from the bench.
The Georgia State womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball team had its five-game winning streak snapped as poor shooting coupled with foul trouble doomed the Panthers in a 67-51 loss to UT Arlington Saturday at the GSU Sports Arena. Georgia State (10-11, 6-3 Sun Belt) managed just 18-of-71 from the field (25.4%) and 11-for-30 from the free throw line (36.7%). In the game in which 52 fouls were called, three GSU players fouled out and two UTA players. The game was actually much closer than the score might indicate. The host Panthers led the entire first half, but for a 25-second span, and took a 30-26 lead into the halftime break. In the second half, UTA (2-18, 1-8) erased a 31-29 lead at 19:31 with a 8-0 run to make it 37-31 at 16:27. By then, both GSU post players had four fouls, which was not good when two other post players did not play with injuries. One fouled out at 8:48 and the other at 6:31. Combined, those two logged only 26 total minutes of the possible 80 minutes they could have with their foul trouble. UTA maintained the lead at 47-41 with 9:37 to go and GSU narrowed it down to 48-43 with 7:50 still to play. It was still a six-point game with 57-51, but by then GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading scorer, Kendra Long, had become the third Panther to foul out. UTA ran off the final 10 points of the game over the last 2:45, mainly with free throws. All told there were 66 free throws shot, 36 by UTA and 30 by GSU in the foul-fest. Georgia Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second-lowest offensive night of the season saw Kayla Nolan score 10 points and grab nine rebounds. UT Arlington was led by 6-foot-3 Desherra Nwanguma, who gladly took advantage of GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s foul troubles by scoring 13 points and picking up 15 of GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s errant 71 shots. The second-half by GSU would have to rate as its worst half of the season as the team shot 22% from the field (8-of-36), shot only 23.5% from the free throw line (4-of-17), and shot 1-12 outside the arc (8%). In that second half, GSU was outrebounded 32-19 and allowed UTA to shoot 50% (12-of-24) The 23.5% from the charity stripe comes from the team that leads the Sun Belt in FT percentage at 71% on the season.

First-place Arkansas State used free throw shooting to staveoff second-place Georgia State, 80-75, on Saturday in a Sun Belt Conference game in the GSU Sports Arena. Georgia State had won a 76-74 fight-to-the-finish game in Jonesboro on Jan. 14 and today Arkansas State hung on when GSU closed to 70-67 with 2:44 and again at 78-75 with 42.8 seconds. Today, the Red Wolves survived the comeback. ASU shot 36 free throws and made 25, while GSU shot 19 and made 15. GSU had starting center Brittany Logan and leading scorer Kendra Long both foul out. Hayley Gerrin, Alisha Andrews and Kayla Nolan all had four fouls as well. The first half was a see-saw, trade-punches type game from the two heavyweights with nine lead changes and four ties. GSU was leading 33-29 with 1:30 in the half, but ASU closed on a 6-0 run to take a 35-33 lead into halftime. The game actually â&#x20AC;&#x153;changedâ&#x20AC;? at halftime when the lead referee could not return for the second half, leaving two officials to call the game. In the second half, the game was tied for the fifth time at 45 with 14:46 when Arkansas State pulled back ahead 52-46 at 12:58. Arkansas State then got a steal and free throw that Georgia State coach Sharon Baldwin-Tener called time out simply to be able to address the referees on what she was convinced the player was out of bounds on that play. That debated play opened a nine-point advantage and eventually got it up to 60-50 at 9:46. But, Georgia State wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done yet, despite the foul trouble. Georgia State had it back down to 68-64 with still 4:39 to play, even though Logan was out at center, back-up Gerrin was in foul trouble and back-up Groover broke her foot in a fall. A 3-point basket by Ashlee Cole closed the score to 70-67 with 2:44 and it was looking like a who-had-the-ball-last-might-win kind of game. That made the earlier debated play and three points loom even larger now. ASUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all-conference forward Jane Morrill scored a couple close-in baskets, but Kendra Longâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three for GSU brought it back to 74-70 at 1:40. Long fouled out 10 seconds later. Free throws by GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ashley Watson closed the score to 77-73 at 54 seconds. Watsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s drive made it 78-75 with 42.8 seconds and it was down to that one-possession game. A free throw and missed free throw by Jamie Ruffins made it 79-75 with GSU having a chance to close it further with an open 3-pointer that just missed.
Troy cashed in on 15 3-point baskets to post a 111-90 win over Georgia State in a Sun Belt Conference match-up Saturday at the Trojan Arena. That splits the season series after GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 85-77 win in Atlanta in January. Winners of five of its last seven games, Troy made 10 treys in a 59-point first half and finished 15-of-32 outside the arc, one shy of its school record. Georgia State shot 49% for the game and scored 90 points, but stymied its chances to win with 27 turnovers. The 201 total points is a Sun Belt single-game record. This game included 201 points, 154 field goal attempts, 49 3-point attempts, 43 free throws, 87 rebounds and 54 assists. Troy (9-14, 5-7) saw its 59-42 halftime lead shrink to 67-54 at 15:26, but then grew that back to 20 points at 78-58 at 12:43 and only the final score remained in doubt at that point. Sophomore Ashley Beverly-Kelly poured in 32 points with a perfect 5-for-5 outside the arc. Joanna Harden, averaging 25.5 per game, added 22 more points with 4-of-8 outside the 3-point line. This was Troyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fourth 100-point game of the season as they are in the top 20 in the nation in scoring. Georgia State (10-13, 6-5) had four players in double figures. Forward Maryam Dogo came off the bench to score 18 points on 8-for-10 field goals to go with 8 rebounds. The Panthers shot 52.9% in the first half and 50% for the game (34-68) in scoring its 90 points. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like they did something we werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t prepared for, they just put the ball in the basket and made a lot of 3-pointers,â&#x20AC;? coach Sharon Baldwin-Tener. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am disappointed to give up that many points, but I might be more disappointed to turn the ball over 27 times, mainly just careless unforced passing errors.â&#x20AC;? After the snow and ice week and missed game, GSU now comes back to Atlanta to play three home games (Monday, Wednesday and Saturday). Monday night is a make-up doubleheader game with the men as both teams face new Sun Belt rival Texas State for the first time. The women tip at 5 and the men at 7:30 p.m.
Paced by Kendra Longâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career-best 27 points, Georgia State raced away from Texas State 82-69 on Monday night. Georgia State (7-5 Sun Belt, 11-13 overall) shot 50.8% for the game (30-of-59) and made 17-of-18 free throws (94.4%) to end Texas Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s five-game winning streak. After Texas State (8-4, 11-12) had erased an 11-point GSU first half lead to tie the game at 37 at halftime, Georgia State was forced to step the tempo up in the second half. The teams traded baskets for much of the second half with GSU staying ahead for all but about 45 seconds when Texas State had a 42-41 lead at 16:56. It was only 61-57 in GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s favor with 4:33 to play when Long and center Brittany Logan went to work. A jumper by Long, a follow-up and free throw by Long and two free throws by Logan got things started and built GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lead up to eight points at 68-60 with 3:01. A 3-pointer by Alisha Andrews got it to double figures at 71-60 at 2:23. GSU continued to make its free throws to pull away for the win. Long, the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only senior, scored 17 of her 27 points in the second half. While this was her 10th game with 20 or more points, it was her single game high among her 1,193 career points and 62 double-figure games. She shot 8-for-12, including 2-of-2 outside the arc, to go with a perfect 9-for-9 from the free throw line. Logan, the 6-foot-4 junior center, came off the bench to score 16 points, grab nine rebounds and block three shots. Sophomore forward Morgan Jackson scored 10 points and pulled down six rebounds. Junior forward Maryam Dogo also got a start and contributed seven rebounds and six points. GSU started Dogo, Jackson, Moss, Long and Andrews in yet another change during the season. Texas State was led by guard Ariel Anderson with 19 points in reserve, adding 4-of-7 3-point baskets. Erin Peoples added 16 points and center Ashley Ezeh netted 14 more points for the Bobcats, a new Sun Belt team like Georgia State. Georgia State has now beaten the No. 1 and No. 2 teams in the Sun Belt standings and at 7-5 is a half-game out of third place with two teams at 8-5. The Panthers are in the midst of four games in eight days and will play host to UL-Monroe on Wednesday evening at the Sports Arena.

Host UT Arlington pulled away in the final four minutes for a 85-72 win over the Panthers. Georgia State closed back to 57-54 at 5:04 and 69-66 at 4:22 before Chauntranda Williams made back-to-back 3-point baskets in the next 50 seconds to extend the lead. Williams had been 0-for-4 outside the arc at that point. Much of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;actionâ&#x20AC;? tonight seemed to be standing still as 54 fouls were called and 68 free throws were shot during the 40 minutes. GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s point guard Alisha Andrews, who leads the Sun Belt in assists and steals, played only 13 minutes before fouling out with four assists and two points. Center Brittany Logan hung on to log 26 minutes after having three fouls in the first half. A trio of UTA players had four fouls early as well. Junior guard Ashley Watson made her first start since injuring her knee on Nov. 15 and responded well with 17 points on a perfect evening of 5-for-5 field goals and 7-for-7 free throws. UT Arlington is just 3-12 in Sun Belt play and 4-22 overall, but they swept the GSU series. Six Mavericks scored in double figures, including three off the bench. Tahila Pope came off the bench to score 15 points, making 8-of-10 free throws. Allea Harris entered the game to add 3-of-4 3-pointers for 13 points. Georgia State held a 38-36 rebound advantage, but also had a 28-24 lead in fouls called on them. In between the foul whistles, GSU had 11 steals and forced 16 turnovers. The game had six lead changes and four ties in the first half. Visiting Georgia State had forged back ahead 19-17 with 9:58, but UTA got the lead back to 7 at 27-20 at 7:49. GSU answered right back to charge into a 29-29 tie with 5:02 on the clock. UTA spurted back ahead with a 15-6 run to end the first half and make it 44-35 at the break. In the second half, UTA got the lead into double digits to 11 points at 50-39, but Georgia State got three steals and five points from Watson to narrow it back to 51-50 at 13:01 on the clock. The game was a three-point, one-possession margin three more times over the next nine minutes. A big key, other than fouls, proved to be UTAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 3-point shooting (7-of-19) while GSU strugged with 3-of-17 outside the arc.GSU had made 141 3â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s entering the game and UTA just 102 on the season.

Trying to finish a three-game home stand with a third straight win, Georgia State misfired and dropped a 67-63 decision to the University of Louisiana at Lafayette Saturday. The Panthers had won the first two by shooting well outside the arc (14-of-30, 47%) and at the free throw line (45-of-53, 85%). Tonight, those shots went astray, making just 6-of-20 3-point shots (30%) and just 13-of-18 free throws (72%). These slow-tempo Raginâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Cajuns capitalized, hitting 52.4% in the second half (11-of-21) and 10-of-13 free throws (77%) to garner a third straight win of their own. Many of ULâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shots were as the shot clock was about to expire. After a 33-28 halftime lead, UL surged to a 53-37 lead at 9:02 and appeared like they might run away with the game. But, host Georgia State wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give up and finally started making some shots down the stretch. GSU erased a 10-point deficit of 63-53 at 2:39 with a 8-1 run that had narrowed it to a one-point game at 64-61 with 41.5 seconds left. Georgia State got the ball back and the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s season free throw record holder and career record holder from the line, Ashley Watson, was fouled with 31.5 seconds left and a chance to make it a one-point game. On this night, the amazing shooter missed not one, both both shots. But, teammate Kayla Nolan was there to grab the rebound and give GSU yet another chance, But on this night, she was called for an offensive foul driving to the basket. A free throw by ULâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brooklyn Arceneaux and then a miss made it 65-61 with 11.9 seconds. GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Long drove for a layup to make it 65-63 with three ticks still left. But, Arceneaux made both free throws to seal the victory. Georgia State (8-6, 12-14) got 18 points and five rebounds from Kendra Long, but on just 5-of-14 shooting. Point guard Alisha Andrews added 10 points, but hit just 3-of-9 shots. Center Brittany Logan had 12 rebounds and nine points. Georgia State held a 36-31 rebound advantage with 12 offensive boards.

The visiting Panthers led by six points in the first half and held a 25-23 advantage at halftime. But, horrid shooting of open shots and foul trouble to center Brittany Logan turned the tide. GSU made just 2-of-15 shots to start the second half and it grew to just 4-of-25 shots later in the game as the Panthers missed open lay-ups, open jump shots, open 3-point shots and anything else they attempted. GSU was whistled for just three fouls in the first half, then 12 in the second half, with two quick ones on center Logan being critical as she exited at 18:21 with three fouls and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t return for seven minutes. With back-up center Haley Gerrin already out injured, that left a thin GSU bench to step up in the paint and Texas Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ashley Ezeh went off with a 17-point second half. Georgia State shot a miserable 25% in the second half and a frustrating 29.6% for the game with so many open misses. A team that shoots 71% from the free throw line could shoot even just 57% from the line today on 12-of-21. The game and momentum shifted when 6-foot-4 Logan exited with three fouls at 18:21 as Texas State went on a 7-0 run to take a 30-26 lead they would never lose. And, when Logan returned she had to be careful and non-aggressive for a while. Despite its poor shooting, Georgia State hung close, trailing just 40-36 with 6:52 to play. The Panthers made an open lay-up that could have cut it to two, but the passer was called for an offensive foul on a play that wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t in agreement with GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coaches. It was still a two-possession game with 3:36 at 46-38 on one of GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rare baskets. Georgia State (8-8 Sun Belt, 12-16 overall) was led by Loganâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s double-double of 12 points and 12 rebounds in just 25 minutes. Ashlee Cole came off the bench to add 11 points, Georgia State finished with a 45-44 rebound advantage. This is GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lowest-scoring game of the season as the Panthers came in averaging 69 points a game.

UALR held off a scrappy and tired Georgia State team, 6458, Wednesday night at the Stephens Center. The Panthers, who left Atlanta Monday and flew to Memphis to try to get to Little Rock through the ice and snow of Arkansas, finally got to Little Rock about two hours before the game and got off the bus to play. During the game, leading scorer Kendra Long fouled out and logged only 18 minutes. Top point guard Alisha Andrews got hurt and couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t finish the game. But, the team was still only down three points with a minute to play. In Atlanta, GSU came from 13 points down in the second half to win 61-59. Tonight, they were down 11 points at 17:30 and closed back to two points at 51-49 with five minutes still to go, even without Long able to play. When Brittany Logan made two free throws with 55.4 seconds to make it 60-57, it was still anyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game to win. UALRâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;hot-potatoâ&#x20AC;? possession with an offensive rebound saw Taylor Ford get the ball at the top of the key with four seconds on the shot clock and fire up a must-shoot bomb that went in with 25 seconds left to secure the win. Center Brittany Logan led Georgia State with 16 points and 13 rebounds in 26 minutes as she had three fouls early and played cautiously for a while. Long, GSUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading scorer, had 10 points after starting the game with back-to-back 3-pointers and having eight points in seven minutes as it looked like it might be her night. But foul trouble spoiled that. Georgia State controlled the boards to post a 38-31 rebound advantage. That means the Panthers have only been at a rebound deficit one time in the past 12 games. Georgia Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s travel-weary schedule saw them leave last Tuesday for two games in Texas and get back into Atlanta on Sunday. Then, they left for Memphis early Monday afternoon and a one-hour walk through practice. The Monday-Wednesday was spent in travel trying to get to UALR with no practice time anywhere in there. And, there was homework from missed classes to tend to.

In a see-saw game with 11 lead changes and seven ties, Western Kentucky pulled away late to win its seventh straight game, 79-63 over host Georgia State. Georgia State started with a 7-0 lead in 90 seconds and built that lead to 20-12 with 8:30 to go in the first half. Western Kentucky went on a 9-0 run to take its first lead of the game at 21-20 with 6:12 in the half. But, GSU guard Alisha Andrews hit a 3-pointer for her 1,000th career point and tied the game at 23 with five minutes to play. GSU went back up by three points, but WKU battled back to tie the game at halftime 33-33. A key for Georgia State was 6-foot-4 center Brittany Logan picking up a third foul with a minute to play. In the second half, WKU attacked first to open a 43-37 lead after five minutes. But, host GSU answered right back with a 6-0 run to tie the game at 43-43 with 13:52. A few seconds later, Logan picked up a fourth foul and headed for the bench. Georgia State hustled its way back into the lead and seniorguard Kendra Long knocked down a jumper to push host GSU up 52-49 as the clock hit 10:00 to play. But, with Logan out and back-up Haley Gerrin out for the year with a back injury, WKU could attack at will down low. And, attack they did. The Hilltoppers went on a 19-2 run over the next five and a half minutes to open up a 68-54 lead at 4:45. WKU shot 60.6% in the second half (20-of-33). GSU closed back to 10 at 71-61 with 2:55 to go, but could not sustain a rally. Georgia Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only senior, Kendra Long, led the Panthers with 14 points and her 218th and 219th career 3-point baskets. Long also added six rebounds, three assists and a pair of steals. Logan was able to score 13 points on 5-of-9 to go with seven rebounds in her abbreviated 23 minutes of play. The catalyst for WKU today was freshman Bria Gaines who came off the bench to score a career-high 21 points and grab 10 rebounds. Gaines came in averaging 5.1 points and 3.6 rebounds a game. Georgia State finishes as the fifth seed for its first Sun Belt Conference tournament.
