Salk Dominates Wake Tech, Storms into Region 10 Semifinals

PETERSBURG, V.A. — Turning to its deep bench and relentless play style, the Salkehatchie men’s basketball team knocked off Wake Tech Community College, 109-78, to advance to the semifinals of the NJCAA Region 10 Tournament at Richard Bland Community College. 

Third-seeded Salkehatchie, after dispatching sixth-seeded Wake Tech for the third time this season, will chase a berth in the title game for the second time in three years. Salk will take on Brunswick Community College in the semifinal that tips off Friday at 4:30 p.m. The winner will play either top seeded Gaston College or fifth seeded and host, Richard Bland.

Salkehatchie, which improved to 24-7, won its second in a row. For the 20th time this season the Indians scored over 100 points. The pace, depth, and shooting continue to be the calling card for the Indians.
