Lady Pioneers Defeat Jackson
Complete Season Sweep of Jets
Jackson, MI – The Delta women's basketball team traveled to Jackson on Wednesday to face the Jets of Jackson Community College in an MCCAA crossover matchup and emerged victorious with a 75-71 victory. The Pioneers had defeated Jackson last month at home, 78-66. With the win, Delta improves to 5-4 on the season while Jackson drops to 2-10.
Delta jumped out to a big lead after one quarter, 22-12 thanks to the hot shooting of freshman guard Nyashia Williams who ended with a game best 19 points on the evening. But Jackson would climb back in it by halftime and only trailed by three heading in to the final stanza.
