WASHINGTON, D.C. – Senior Jolie Efezokhae recorded her 59th career game in double figures with 11 points to move into second place on Jacksonville State's career games scoring in double figures list in Thursday's 70-39 loss at No. 11 Georgetown University.

Efezokhae, who returned to the lineup after missing the last five games with an ankle injury, surpassed Tracy (Linton) Broom for second place on the career games scoring in double figures list. Efezokhae now has scored 1,205 career points and remains fifth on JSU's all-time scoring list.

Monica McNutt scored 18 points, including five of the Hoyas 10 three-pointers on the night, to lead GU. Leading scorer Sugar Rodgers added 12 points and tied Alexa Roche with a game-high six rebounds.

The Hoyas pressure defense forced 20 of JSU's season-high 31 turnovers in the first half and held JSU to 27.8 percent shooting from the floor to hold a 33-11 lead at halftime.
