Find out what's happening with Midwestern State Women's Basketball during this week's Stang Gang Podcast, featuring head coach
Brenita Jackson.
Midwestern State (11-12, 9-8) is preparing for a crucial week at D.L. Ligon Coliseum as UT Permian Basin (12-11, 10-7) and Angelo State (16-7, 12-5) visit the Mustangs, who are battling to make the LSC Postseason Tournament.
Â
The Mustangs earned their first road victory of the year by defeating the Falcons at UTPB Gym Complex last month, 62-57. MSU took a 15-5 lead in the first quarter at Odessa as the Falcons were just 2-of-19 from the field to start the game. UTPB is 4-5 on the road after suffering back-to-back losses at Eastern New Mexico and West Texas A&M.Â
Angelo State, which has lost its last two games, did not face a Midwestern State team with a full arsenal in San Angelo. The Rambelles won the first meeting, 84-61, on Jan. 16, but
Zarria Carter was only able to play 20 minutes after getting called for three fouls in the first half, and a fourth foul was assessed in the opening two minutes of the third quarter.Â
Carter and the Mustangs dealt with similar frustration in their 52-50 loss at Western New Mexico on Saturday as Carter was only able to play 16 minutes due to foul trouble.
Carter scored 32 points on 12-of-17 shooting, leading MSU to an 88-70 win at Sul Ross State in the first game of their recent road trip.Â
