Panthers Look To Remain Hot At Home Versus Jackson State On Saturday Evening

The Prairie View A&M men's basketball team hits the hardwood on Saturday with a critical matchup versus Jackson State beginning at 5 p.m. in the Baby Dome. Saturday's game is also designated as high school day as area high school students will be admitted for a special price of $5.

The Panthers are looking to remain hot as they've won five of the past seven since Jan. 14. As a result, they've moved into third place in the SWAC standings and are in prime position to move even higher with three of their next five games in the Baby Dome. Prairie View A&M is coming off an impressive home win over Texas Southern last weekend which was played in front of a capacity crowd. The Panthers also enter Saturday's game looking to log their first season sweep over JSU since 2008 and second sweep since 1998.

Since his breakout game in Jackson, Miss on Jan. 14, sophomore guard Louis Munks has continued his dominance on the court as he's coming off his eighth straight game with double digit points. During that span, the Arlington, Texas native is averaging 17.8 points and has increased his seasonal scoring average to 9.8 points (14.6 in SWAC).
