Notae scored 14 of the Dolphins' first 19 points after intermission and Jacksonville built a 56-47 lead. Notae finished 11 of 16 from the field and Devin Harris scored 17 points for the Dolphins. Damien Sears added 10 rebounds for Jacksonville.

The Dolphins ended a three-game losing streak and are 2-6 in their last eight games.

Darrell White led Middle Georgia State with 14 points, Tyrone Young 13 and Milline had 10 but finished 5 for 19 from the field.
