About the Mustangs

Katiya Jackson and Nolisha Markham play their final game on Stockton Court Wednesday night at D.L. Ligon Coliseum.
 
Jackson has appeared in 45 games and made 30 starts playing two seasons over three years for Midwestern. She returned from a knee injury this season after missing the 2009-10 campaign.
 
As one of the best defensive player in the LSC, the 5-8 guard from Wichita Falls averaged 7.9 points and 4.5 rebounds while leading the Mustangs in blocks and steals in each of her competition seasons.
 
Jackson delivered her top performance when the Mustangs extended No. 9 Northeastern State to double overtime earlier this season. The Burkburnett High product poured in 23 points, grabbed six rebounds, dished out four assists and made three steals.
 
Markham plays in her 50th game tonight and will make her 35th start at forward.
 
And the 5-10 forward from Tulsa has been nothing but stellar as she has enjoyed a breakout campaign in 2010-11.
 
Markham leads the team in scoring at 14.2 points per game and pulls down 6.8 rebounds a contest.
 
She scored 20-or-more points five times in a seven-game stretch from Jan. 6-26 earlier this season and stands third in the LSC South in scoring average during division play with 16.7 points a game.
 
Markham enjoyed a career performance against tonight's opponent as she erupted for 27 points and 12 rebounds against the Rambelles at Junell Center earlier this season.

About the Rambelles

Angelo State (15-9, 8-4) rolls into tonight's contest having won six of their last seven games.
 
Camille Perkins is closing her senior campaign on a tear as the 5-7 guard from Groesbeck. She has led the Rambelles in each of their last five games while averaging 21 points a contest.
 
Sophomore forward Lindsey Mahone scored 12.5 points and pulls down 7.1 rebounds a game while junior center Paige Weishuhn adds 9.3 points and 4.9 rebounds.
 
Freshman guard Giselle Aguirre comes off of the bench to score 6.9 points while sophomore forward Lindsey Youngblood adds 5.6 points and 3.3 rebounds in 22.9 minutes per game.
 
Angelo State has already clinched a berth in next week's LSC Championships in Bartlesville and can clinch at least a No. 3 seed tonight against the Mustangs with a win and an Abilene Christian loss at Tarleton State.
 
The Belles would have to claim one more win than West Texas A&M this week to take the No. 2 seed. The Lady Buffs close the season by hosting Incarnate Word tonight and traveling to Eastern New Mexico on Saturday.
 
If Angelo State, Abilene Christian and West Texas A&M remain tied for second, the Lady Buffs would go in at No. 2 followed by Angelo State and Abilene Christian.

About the Series

Midwestern State and Angelo State meet for the 50th time on the hardwood tonight at D.L. Ligon Coliseum.
 
The Rambelles own a 26-23 edge in the series that dates back to the 1978-79 season and have won 14 of the last 18 games in the series since claiming an 82-67 win in the 2002 LSC title contest.
 
MSU has won the last two games against Angelo State in Wichita Falls claiming narrow wins of 69-67 on Feb. 24, 2010 and 79-77 on Jan. 14, 2009.
 
The Mustangs are 18-7 all time against the Rambelles at D.L. Ligon Coliseum.
