free-throw line for the Jaguars. Terrance Dixon Jr. contributed 11 points and
nine rebounds. Cam Amboree pitched in with nine points and seven assists.
Tyler Shirley led the second-seeded Rattlers (15-16) with 16 points. Micah
Octave totaled 14 points, nine rebounds and three steals. Kaleb Washington
scored 13.
Southern went into the half ahead of Florida A&M 43-37 behind 10 points from
Jacobs. Shirley had a layup with 26 seconds left to knot the score at 70-all
before Jacobs hit the winner.
