WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina -- When a football team is as successful as the 15th-ranked Winston-Salem State Rams have been basketball can sometimes get lost in the shuffle.Coach Bobby Collins and the new-look Rams are quietly going through practices in preparation for what should be another good season. With 12 new players the Rams won’t look the same but it’s a good bet they will contend for the CIAA’s Southern Division title and make a run to their fourth straight NCAA tournament.
Another difference this season is the Rams schedule. They usually have opened up on the road in a tournament but this season they will open at home with the Big House Gaines Tip-Off Classic at the Gaines Center.
It’s not only a celebration of the late Gaines, the legendary former basketball coach and athletics director at WSSU, it’s a showcase for this year’s team.
