AUSTIN, Texas – Even as Meme Jackson went ice cold from the field in recent games, Tennessee coach Holly Warlick had no hesitation keeping her on the floor.
“Her defense has just been phenomenal,” Warlick said.
So it was a nice bonus for the ninth-ranked Lady Vols when Jackson found a groove on the offensive end Sunday, too.
Jackson scored a career-best 33 points, Evina Westbrook had 23 and Tennessee beat No. 12 Texas 88-82.
“I was more patient today, and my teammates were giving me great looks,” Jackson said.
