JSU, Alcorn State and MVSU women’s basketball teams are gearing up another season. JSU has a new head coach in Margaret Richards who takes over a Tigers program that has been dominant in the SWAC. Alcorn State returns key players to a team that made a run to the SWAC Championship and they’re out to prove that last year wasn’t a fluke. MVSU is led by first team all preseason pick Sh’Diamond McKnight as they look to turn heads this year. Grambling was picked to win the league, JSU fourth and Alcorn State 7th in the preseason poll. Alcorn State’s Destiny Brown was picked as the Offensive Player of the Year while her teammate Zy’Nia White as a second team selection.

SUMMARY: During the ongoing trial of Carly Gregg, a Rankin County teen charged with her mother’s murder and shooting her stepfather, multiple mental health experts testified about her mental state. They collectively determined that Gregg was competent to stand trial but not definitively mentally insane under Mississippi law. Dr. Amanda Gugiliano, a forensic evaluator, found her competent but couldn’t assess her sanity, while psychiatrist Dr. Jason Pickett suggested her mental state did not meet legal standards. He noted concerns about her attorney potentially guiding her responses for gain and described her journal entries as “theatrical.” The defense’s motion to drop charges was denied.
