McCollum's Double-Double Leads Wolves to Seven Straight

After a slow start in the first half, the Newberry College men's basketball team (7-2, 1-0 SAC) keep their winning streak going, defeating the Anderson University Trojans, 62-53, led by another double-double from senior QuanDaveon McCollum (Clio, S.C.).
 
McCollum led the Wolves having 21 points, along with 14 rebounds. Senior TJ Brown (Columbia, S.C.) was also a double-digit point scorer, having 10 points, along with two three-pointers. Junior Andrew Robinson (Lexington, S.C.) also played a key role, having three three-pointers as well.
 
Brown knocked down a three-pointer to get the game started before the Trojans would have a short lead through the midway point of the first half. McCollum would tie the game up at 12 with a layup with 7:53 left in the half. That layup would spark a 16-point run for the Wolves, seeing two three-pointers from Robinson, jump out to a commanding 26-12 lead with just 2:24 left in the half. The Wolves would finish out the half hot, leading 28-15 at the break.
 
Three pointers from Robinson and Brown would help the Wolves to their largest lead of the night of 17 just minutes into the half. A three-point run for the Trojans would help them cut their deficit massively, getting to within five points with 10:10 left. McCollum would help lead the Wolves to keep a steady lead to finish out the game, finishing off the Trojans 62-53.
 
The Wolves stay at home on Saturday, Dec. 10 as they play host to Catawba College at 4PM.
