Allen Smith had 11 points while Lebaron Weathers, George Davis and Savalance Townsend each chipped in with six points for the second-seeded Golden Lions (17-15), who are going to the NCAA Tournament on a tear as the team has won 11 of their last 12.

Texas-Southern held the early lead, but Arkansas-Pine Bluff chipped away and took a 12-9 lead on Washington's layup with 11 1/2 minutes left in the first half.

The Tigers rallied with a 7-0 spurt, but then went almost the rest of the half without any points as the Golden Lions closed the half with a 12-2 run to take a 26-20 lead into the break.

Texas-Southern cut its deficit to five points with 11 1/2 minutes to play in the second half, as Treasure's jumper made it a 36-31 game.

However, the Tigers again went cold on the offensive end over the next six- plus minutes and the Golden Lions used that to stretch their lead.

Washington hit a three-ball after Treasure's jumper, then hit two free throws, and Weathers' tip-in made it a 43-31 game with a little over eight minutes to play.

From there Arkansas-Pine Bluff had no problems maintaining a double-digit lead on the way to the win.
