FREEPORT, Bahamas (AP) -Jessica Morrow scored 14 points to help No. 15 Baylor hand South Dakota State its first loss of the season, 71-53 on Saturday in the Junkanoo Jam on Grand Bahama Island.
Angela Tisdale added 12 points and 10 assists for Baylor (6-1). Megan Vogel led South Dakota State (4-1) with 24 points.
Baylor star senior forward Bernice Mosby struggled, connecting on only one of her first nine shots, but still finished with 10 points in 16 minutes.
``Considering that we have nine freshman and sophomores and considering that we had five or six players with two fouls in the first half, I couldn't be prouder of my basketball team,'' Baylor coach Kim Mulkey said. ``We never seemed to get too rattled. South Dakota State is a winning program, they're not going to go away. When you look at who they've beaten this year, we knew we'd have a game on our hands.''
Tisdale was selected the tournament MVP for the Lucaya Division of the event.
``I think Angela gets the credit and blame from me on everything because of the position she plays,'' Mulkey said. ``She's been in the system for three years now. She's one of the two we have that's been in a Final Four, that's won a national championship and she just stays steady for us out there on the floor.''
