Texas Southern starts NCAA Tournament with win over Mount St. Mary's

 

The Associated Press - Texas Southern simply had too much pace for a deliberate Mount St. Mary’s squad in a match of No. 16 seeds. TSU coach Johnny Jones took advantage of the sport’s more equitable transfer rules to quickly build an up-tempo attack. He sweet-talked eight talented kids from other programs onto campus, including John Walker III, who had a season-high 19 points and nine rebounds. The win was the Tigers’ 10th straight.

“I feel like I’m on top of the world,” Walker, who was previously at Texas A&M, shouted afterward.

But maybe not for long.

Texas Southern faces East Region top seed Michigan on Saturday. Jones won’t have long to prepare a game plan, but he planned to savor the win, which his players celebrated by emptying a water cooler over his head.

“They drenched me,” Jones laughed, “but I’ll tell you what: It’s one of the best feelings I’ve had in cold water in a long time."
