GRAMBLING, La. – Grambling State's Jason Perry-Murray tipped in a missed shot with .03 of a second remaining as GSU rallied in the final seconds to defeat Texas Southern, 79-78 on Monday night at the Fredrick C. Hobdy Assembly Center.
Grambling State led by as many as six points in the final 24 seconds, but watched as Texas Southern stormed back to grab a 78-77 lead with six seconds remaining after a Donte Clark dunk and subsequent free throw.

After the late GSU tip-in Texas Southern had one final opportunity to win the game, but could not get a shot off before time expired.

Donte Clark paced TSU with 27 points, three boards and three assists, while Trayvon Reed chipped in with a double-double of 14 points and 11 rebounds, along with four blocked shots. Brian Carey registered 10 points, including a pair of 3-pointers.

Texas Southern returns home this weekend to face Mississippi Valley State on Saturday, January 20th at 7:30 pm.
