Jackson is averaging 9.0 points and 10.3 rebounds per game this season as a 6-foot-4 guard. AJ Clark also had 13 points and six rebounds off the bench in the defeat but VMI went just 4-of-15 from the 3-point line. The Keydets have now lost nine of their last 10 games.

However, the Mocs shot just 35.2% from the floor as a team and went just 6-for-26 from beyond the arc. Chattanooga will hope that performance was a statistical outlier after shooting 55.2% from the floor and 39.3% from deep during its five-game winning streak.
