Bobbie Jones scored 15 points and Kylie Werner added 11 to lead once-beaten Jackson in a 63-23 victory Thursday night against winless Central.

Jackson (13-1) poured in seven 3-pointers and limited visiting Central to no more than 10 points in any period and six in the entire second half.

Werner made two of Jackson's seven treys. Loni Littlepage added nine points, Kelly Loos scored seven and Tara Kelley scored seven with two 3-pointers.

Erica Schabbing was the only player in double figures for Central (0-13) with 10 points.
