Shaw defeats Bowie State at the Buzzer
Raleigh,

trailed by two 35-37 after the first 20 minutes. The Bulldogs
biggest lead was 11 which came in the opening period (35-24)
with 3:50 left, but the Bears went on a 10-2 run to close out
the half.
There were eight lead changes and the score was tied nine times,
but it was the defensive effort by the Bears in the second half
that saw the Bulldogs shoot only 36% (9-25) from the floor.
Leading the Bears was senior forward Daniel Jackson (6’6,
210-SR/Lake
Wales
, FL) who finished with a double-double 23 points and 10 rebounds.

the front end of a one and one that closed the door with three
ticks left in the game. Daniel Jackson (Lake
Wales, FL) hit a jumper with 46 seconds left that
put the Bears in striking distance (75-73). After a Catawba

Lenoir-Rhyne College Bears that came out on top over the Shaw
University Bears 59-51 in the Moretz Sports Men’s Basketball
Classic. LR improved to 4-6 and SU dropped to 1-8 on the
season.
It was a nip and tuck battle that saw the home standing Lenoir-Rhyne
Bears pull away in the final 15 seconds with clutch shooting
from the free throw line. Leading 53-51 with 15 seconds
remaining, LR outscored SU 6-0 to secure the win. SU was hurt
at the free-throw line (19 of 31, 66%) and missed several key
shots down the stretch. SU only made six of 25 shoots from the

Bears Fall to Rams in Non-Conference Match-up
WINSTON-SALEM, NC –
It may not
have been the most aesthetically pleasing basketball game that
Winston-Salem State University has ever played, yet it did
result in an all-important 71-63 win for the Rams on Wednesday
evening at the C.E. Gaines Center as they handed Shaw University
their seventh loss of the season in non-conference basketball
action.
The
Rams led for 38:54 of a possible 40:00 in the game as they
trailed only during the game’s first 1:06 of play.
A
James Rosebud lay-up gave the visiting Bears their only lead of
the contest, at 2-0, 36 seconds into the game before a Jamal
Durham four-footer tied the game and a Curtis Hines
three-pointer only 11 seconds later put the Rams ahead for good.
WSSU used a 15-of-30 shooting performance during the contest’s
first 20 minutes of play, including a seven-of-13 shooting
display from three-point range to open up a 17-point halftime
lead as they raced ahead of the Bears 42-25 after the first
period.
The
second half would prove to be a closer contest between the two
teams as several WSSU offensive miscues and eight Ram turnovers
helped Shaw to cut the lead to as little as three points with 39
seconds remaining.
What once was a lead of 19 points (with 9:55 to play in the
second half) became a cushion that could be erased with only one
possession with under a minute remaining in the game.
However, the stoic Rams were impervious to the Bears’ final
charge as five successful free-throws in six attempts over the
course of the game’s final 30 seconds of play sealed the win for
WSSU.
Leading the way for WSSU was Alleggrie Guinn who tallied 19
points, four rebounds and three assists in 28 minutes of work as
he led four WSSU players into double figures. Turning in
another stellar performance was Ram point guard Roy Peake who
chipped in four points, six rebounds, 11 assists and two steals
while committing only a lone turnover in a game-high 32 minutes
of play. Jamal Coleman led Shaw with 20 points on six-for-13
shooting in the losing effort.
WSSU improves to 5-4 overall with the win (0-1 CIAA) while Shaw
falls to 1-7 on the season.
