BIRMINGHAM – Alcorn State men’s basketball player Troy Jackson has been suspended one game by the Southwestern Athletic Conference for unsportsmanlike conduct during Saturday’s game at Mississippi Valley State.

Jackson received two technical fouls during the second half of the Braves’ 89-71 loss. He is suspended for tonight’s game at Univ. Arkansas-Pine Bluff.

The Southwestern Athletic Conference encourages sportsmanship and adherence to all SWAC and NCAA polices. The SWAC will continue to enforce these polices to ensure that everyone in our administrative and athletic programs conduct themselves in a manner that brings credit to our member institutions, intercollegiate athletics and the Conference Office.
