Four Aggies Score In Double Figures, Aggies rout S.C. State

Jada Smith records a double-double.

ORANGEBURG, S.C. – Four Aggies scored in double-figures. Another Aggie recorded her first career triple-double as the North Carolina A&T women's basketball team defeated S.C. State 78-39 in both teams' Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) opener played at Smith-Hammond-Middleton Memorial Center on Saturday. 
 
The same two teams will play again on Sunday at S-H-M Memorial, starting at 4 p.m. 
 
Sophomore guard Jada Smith finished with 10 points and a game-high 11 rebounds to record her first-ever double-double. Smith added an assist and two steals. Freshman guard Sean Kelly Darks added a game-high 19 points, five rebounds and two steals in 21 minutes.
 
"I would like to recognize Jada Smith for the game that she had. Jada stepped in and gave us interior scoring and rebounding. I hope that she can build off of this performance," said N.C. A&T coach Tarrell Robinson.
 
Graduate student guard Chanin Scott recorded 17 points on 7-for-10 shooting from the floor with six rebounds and two blocks. Freshman guard D'Mya Tucker recorded her fourth consecutive double-figure scoring performance with 13 points on 6-for-11 shooting from the floor with six rebounds, three assists and two steals.
 
Defensively, the Aggies (3-1, 1-0 MEAC) held the Bulldogs to 20.8 percent shooting (11-for-53) from the floor and 12. 5 percent shooting (2-for-16) from 3-point range. The Aggies forced 27 turnovers and [were credited with 11 steals. 
 
"It was a great defensive effort forcing 27 turnovers and holding them under 40 points," Robinson said. "I like seeing we had four people in double figures as well as showing the balance we have on this team.
 
The idea that (senior guard and leading scorer) Deja Winters can have an off day and we still put up 70 points is encouraging.  
 
SCSU (1-7, 0-1 MEAC) claimed an 8-5 lead in the first quarter. N.C. A&T took charge from there. They scored the final nine points of the first quarter to take a 14-8 lead. The Aggies never trailed again. 
Neither team scored over the first 2:10 of the second quarter. A Tucker tip-in broke up the drought, and a 3-pointer by SCSU's Heniaya Moton stopped the Aggies 11-0 run to make it a 16-11 game.
 
The Bulldogs got closer when Trinity Klock hit two free throws to cut N.C. A&T's lead to 18-15 with 5:19 to play in the first half. Four points from Tucker and another three points from Scott aided the Aggies in a 12-0 run to end the half as the Aggies went into the locker room with a 30-15 lead.
 
N.C. A&T all but put the Bulldogs away by opening the second half on a 9-2 run to make it 39-17 with 4:09 remaining in the third. Tucker capped off the run with a tip-in. 
 
At the end of the third quarter, the Aggies put together another lengthy run to outscore the Bulldogs 12-0. Scott had six points during the run to give the Aggies a 51-21 lead going into the fourth quarter. 
 
Klock led the Bulldogs with 16 points and 10 rebounds.
