College basketball

MEN, Salisbury 68, Wesley 61: Anthony Bowers scored 17 points and JW Lawson added an additional 17 to lead all scorers but it was not enough as Wesley fell to Salisbury. The Wolverines dropped to 10-12 overall and 8-7 in the Capital Athletic Conference while the Sea Gulls moved to 15-7 on the year and 11-4 in the CAC.

Wesley held a brief lead in the opening minutes of the game but were forced to battle back from behind the remainder of the game as Salisbury took a 40-29 lead into halftime.

The Wolverines came out blazing to start the second half going on a 7-0 run which was capped off by a breakaway slam by Wayne Lennon to make the score 40-36 with 17:08 remaining in regulation. Salisbury answered right back with a three which seemed to be the theme the remainder of the game as Wesley would get back into the game only to be answered with a big three by the Sea Gulls.

Three times later in the half, Wesley battled back to just a two point deficit, but each time Salisbury answered with a three or three-straight free throws as the Wolverines could not get over the hump.

Wesley actually made four more field goals than the Sea Gulls, 24-20, the Salisbury got to the line and converted more often and also made ten triples compared to just four for the Wolverines.

Wyatt Smith led SU with 17 points, 14 rebounds and five blocks while Savercool added 16 points with four three-pointers.

WOMEN, Salisbury 61, Wesley 43: Alexus Stroud (Smyrna High) scored a game-high 19 points as the Wolverines played even with No. 17 Salisbury until the Sea Gulls pulled away late in the game. Wesley falls to 10-12 overall and 6-9 in the CAC while Salisbury improves to 21-1 on the year and 15-0 in league play.

Stroud scored Wesley’s first 11 points with a trio of three-pointers as she alone outscored the Sea Gulls, 11-6 in the first six minutes and 42 seconds.  Five-straight points by Salisbury tied the score and the teams traded leads until a layup by Tiyanna Gibbs with just under a minute left in the half tied the score at 25 going into the break.

Salisbury scored the first five of the second half but a 7-0 run by the Wolverines gave them back the lead at 32-31 with 13:58 left following a pair of free throws by Smyrna High product Brionna Johnson (nine points, 16 rebounds, four assists). That would be the last lead for Wesley as the Sea Gulls went on a 12-0 run over the next four-plus minutes. The Wolverines answered with back-to-back jumpers before going cold again and Salisbury went on another 14-0 run to seal the victory.
