The South Georgia State College Hawks earned a split this past weekend during the annual Applebee's Okefenokee College Classic on SGSC's Waycross Campus. The Hawks (5-3) defeated New Rock Prep 89-50 Friday night and lost to No. 18 Tallahassee Community College (TCC) 76-67 Saturday afternoon.

 

 

Zae Wiggins, Keith Lamar, and Yannis Woods were the leading scorers against New Rock Prep. Wiggins finished with 19 points, six rebounds, six assists, and six steals.

SGSC shot 81.5 percent from the free throw line, missing only five shots (22-of-27). TCC took advantage of strong shooting from the field (45.8 percent) and three-point line (31.8 percent), which proved to be the difference in the game.
