Gabe Rodgers scored a game-high 22 points for Northern Arizona (1-3). DeWayne Russell added 10 points for the Lumberjacks, who match up with Campbell on Saturday.

The Gamecocks scored 18 points off of turnovers and made 11-of-15 attempts at the charity stripe in the first half to take a 31-19 lead into halftime. Northern Arizona made 43.8 percent of its field goal attempts in the opening period, but fell behind as it only managed to attempt 16 shots before the break.

Northern Arizona had the ball in the closing seconds trailing by two points, but Rackley stripped Rodgers to seal the deal.

Despite the loss, the Lumberjacks made 45.7 percent of their field goal attempts and limited JSU to 32.6 percent shooting from the floor.
