Jacksonville State, from the Ohio Valley Conference, was a former rival of GSU in the old TAAC, then Atlantic Sun days. The Gamecocks have played five of their first eight games on the road, coming to Atlanta after a Sunday loss at nationally-ranked Florida State. One of JSU s top players, Brittany Wiley, hails from Carrollton, Ga. and averages 11 points a game. JaDechia Hill, from Villa Rica, Ga., comes off the bench and has played in every game. Baldwin-Tener has returned to her Atlanta hometown after eight seasons as head coach at East Carolina in C-USA. She took last year s 23-win ECU team to the second round of the WNIT and has started the Panthers at 3-4. Georgia State s been working on team chemistry with the new staff and a lot of new players, mixed with returning players who hadn t started before. So far, eight different players have been given starting assignments. Six-foot-two junior redshirt Chan Harris, averaging 14 points and 10.7 rebounds, while blocking 16 shots, missed the last game with a foot injury and is day-to-day. Senior Angelique Burtts averages 15.3 points and 6.6 rebounds, with 13 steals. Traci Haltiwanger and Kendra Long each have eight three-point baskets. Sophomore center Cody Paulk has 11 blocked shots and is shooting 55.6% from the field. GSU s defensive stats rank them No. 11 in the nation in field goal defense (.329), No. 15 in blocked shots (5.6), No. 34 in points allowed (54.6) and No. 66 in the country in steals per game (10.9).
