The Lady Jays were leading Emerson, who is undefeated in conference play at halftime, but the Lady Pirates hit a handful of three-pointers late to beat Nevada 66-46. It was an 8-point game until the final few minutes. 

Ke'Asia Pearson led the way in scoring with 17 points. Jordin Haley poured in 13 points, Kadiya Curry added 9, Karleigh Carlton scored 4, and Yasmine Harris scored 3. 

The Lady Jays are set to play Dermott Friday afternoon in the Third-Place Game. A 3-seed heading into Regionals would be huge for the Lady Jays.
