Women’s Basketball celebrates Sophomore Night on Tuesday

PERKINSTON — Mississippi Gulf Coast will hope to celebrate its Sophomore Night on Tuesday by earning that three-woman class a night off.

The Bulldogs can clinch a bye in the NJCAA Region 23 Women's Basketball Tournament by finishing in the top four with a win against Copiah-Lincoln on Monday night. Tipoff at Dantzler Arena is set for 6 p.m.

Gulf Coast needs one victory in its last two regular-season games, or a loss by Coahoma it its last two games, to clinch a fourth-place spot. The Bulldogs play at East Mississippi on Thursday.
