Senior forward Darrell Wonge is playing his best basketball at the right time and will have to be at his best again to help Winston-Salem State defeat rival N.C. A&T today. Tipoff will be at 4 p.m. at the Corbett Center in Greensboro.
“I heard a lot about the rivalry, and I was at both of the football games when we played A&T the last two years,” said Wonge, who scored a career-high 30 points Monday in a 64-62 loss to Hampton. “I like it. It feels like a Carolina-Duke thing, only a smaller version.”
