“I feel as though we are ready to play Grambling,” head women's basketball coach Freda Freeman-Jackson stated.  “The girls were actually focused during practice today.  We cut some of the number of players that we usually travel, so the girls really didn't have a choice but to be focused at practice tonight.  If they make the dedication and the commitment to play on the defensive end then I think we should be ok.  This is a very crucial game for us to determine how we finish the season.”
