The Privateers have won seven of their last 10 games. The Privateers (14-15, 12-8) now are tied for third in the conference with Texas Rio Grande Valley and have clinched a spot in the Southland Conference Tournament set for March 8-11 in Lake Charles.
“Congratulations to the team on making the [conference tournament],” Master P said in a news release. “We have to support our own. We appreciate the support all year, and now it’s time to finish strong. When we show up for our students and our university, we’re investing in the future of New Orleans. This is about education, opportunity and building something that lasts.”
