WSSU edges Bowie State

WINSTON SALEM, North Carolina - Another win, another hero. This time, it was guard Justin Glover who saved the day for Winston-Salem State in a 70-69 win on Monday night over 15th-ranked Bowie State in front of nearly 2,000 at the Gaines Center.

Glover, who was shooting just 65 percent from the foul line, made two free throws with .3 seconds left to keep the Rams unbeaten in CIAA play. The Rams (9-2, 3-0 CIAA) made all the right moves despite not playing with two injured starters: leading scorer Lamar Monger (knee) and forward Stephon Platt (ankle).

"We're just blessed," said Glover, who scored 16 points, had three assists and three steals and was 8 of 8 from the foul line. "We have a coach that cares who never lets us not believe we can do it. He tells us to believe all the time, and that's what we are doing."
