Coming off a game in which she scored just two points, Jessika Carter must step up in order for the Bulldogs to get back on track and make a run.

At 6-foot-5, Carter is a dominat paint presence capable of taking over a game. With the rival South Carolina Gamecocks next on the schedule, the outcome of the game will be determined by her play.

Carter is averaging 15.6 points and 9.2 boards per game. While the Aggies are a formidable squad, the Gamecocks are on another level. Look for Carter to return to form and record a double-double.

Coach Nikki McCray-Penson and the Bulldogs have a long road ahead. Expect McCray-Penson to make the necessary adjustments and have Carter back in sync with her teammates. If able to dominate the paint, a potential upset may be in the works come Thursday evening.

Hail State!
