WSSU to start CIAA play

WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina -- The newcomers to the Winston-Salem State basketball program will get their first taste of the intensity of CIAA play tonight when Virginia Union visits the Gaines Center.

WSSU is 5-5; Virginia Union is 2-8 (1-0 CIAA).

“I’ve heard it’s a crazy atmosphere in every game,” said Preston Ross, a transfer from Western Carolina. “You have to ready to play and get up for the games. I’m looking forward to it.”

The Rams (5-5) will have three home games in the next five days, but the atmosphere will be rather tame with WSSU students still out on break. Coach Bobby Collins says he hopes fans will come out to help fill the void.
