LAST TIME OUT ...
The Lady Panthers won their second consecutive game Sunday with a thrilling 61-56 win at Houston. It was a memorable win for the Lady Panthers, who had never beaten Houston in 15 previous tries in a series that dates back to the 1975-76 season. Senior guard Jeanette Jackson (Las Vegas, Nev. / Sierra Vista HS) led the way for Prairie View A&M, posting season highs of 28 points and seven rebounds. Jackson shot 8-of-22 from the field and drained 40 percent (4 of 10) of her 3-point attempts.

Prairie View A&M jumped out to a 9-4 lead and took a 30-17 advantage into halftime. The Cougars would come back in the second half, but the Lady Panthers pulled away in the end and improved to 2-6 with the victory.

STRENGTH OF SCHEDULE
Prairie View A&M's non-conference schedule features four games against teams that were ranked in the Associated Press Top 25 Division I Women's Basketball poll at the start of the season. The Lady Panthers faced three of those teams in a stretch of four games – a 59-41 loss at then-No. 7 Texas A&M on Nov. 24 and losses to North Carolina and Stanford in Honolulu, Hawaii this past weekend. The Tar Heels and Cardinals were ranked No. 11 and No. 5, respectively at the time of their games against PVAMU.

The Lady Panthers will return from their Christmas break with a contest at Baylor, which is currently ranked No. 9 in the latest AP and USA Today Coaches' Top 25 polls. All four ranked teams on the Lady Panthers' schedule are ranked ninth or higher in both polls.
