Louisiana Ragin' Cajun basketball season came to an end Monday night.

After winning 6 of their previous 7, and three straight in the Sun Belt Conference tournament, Louisiana faced off against the Georgia State Panthers in the Sun Belt Championship game with a trip to the NCAA Tournament on the line.

In the end, the Panthers punched their ticket to the dance, defeating the Cajuns 80-71.

The biggest difference in the contest was from beyond the arc.

Georgia State finished with 10 three-pointers compared to Louisiana's 6, but the efficiency was the story.

The Panthers were 10-15 (66.7%) from long range, while the Ragin' Cajuns were 6-17 (35.3%).

Sophomore Jordan Brown was outstanding, finishing with a team-high 24 points and 8 rebounds for the Cajuns.

Louisiana ends the season 16-15 overall.
