S.C. State gets key MEAC win over Hampton



ORANGEBURG, South Carolina -- Improved defense and a balanced scoring effort helped South Carolina State (7-15, 5-3) match its Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference win total from a season ago with a key 65-56 victory over Hampton Monday night before 707 fans at Smith-Hammond-Middleton Memorial Center.

With nine games to play, the Bulldogs sit tied for third place in the MEAC standings and remain in the thick of the conference’s regular-season title race.

“There’s plenty of games left,” S.C. State head coach Murray Garvin said. “We’re still competing to try to win a regular season title. We’re coming out and competing, not just to finish a game but to compete for a championship.”
