	Wingate edges Presbyterian College in men's hoops Friday, Feb 14, 2003 By David Sherwood WINGATE, N.C. (BP)--Wingate University junior guard Titus Miller hit two free throws with 7.5 seconds remaining, lifting the Bulldogs to an 81-80 South Atlantic Conference men's basketball win over Presbyterian College Feb. 12. Wingate (14-8 overall, 7-2 SAC) remain tied for first place with Carson-Newman and Lenoir-Rhyne atop the league standings. Presbyterian (20-5 overall, 6-3 SAC) falls one game back. The Bulldogs led by 10 in the first half before settling for a 36-30 lead at intermission. An 11-3 Presbyterian run gave the visitors a 57-56 lead on a lay-up by freshman forward Michael Drum with 9:35 remaining in the contest. The advantage was the first for the visitors since midway through the first half. A three-point field goal by Presbyterian senior guard Andrew Dellinger stretched the lead to 64-58 with 6:59 to go. A 10-4 Bulldog run tied the game at 68 on a jumper by senior guard Djuan Hankins. The two teams swapped leads and ties down the stretch. A long jumper by Wingate sophomore guard Steven Mims put the Bulldogs up 74-72 with 2:40 to play. Presbyterian wrapped three-pointers by senior forward Jeff Whittle and freshman guard Tray Ballenger around a Drum lay-up to take a 80-77 lead with 55 seconds left. Wingate senior center Kristian Jensen hit two free throws with 45 seconds remaining to cut the Presbyterian lead to one (80-79). Presbyterian took the air out of the ball, missing a lay-up as the shot clock ran down. Miller got the rebound and was fouled. He made both charity tosses to give Wingate its final margin. Presbyterian missed a jumper with two seconds left and Miller again grabbed the rebound as time expired. Hankins and Miller had 21 points each for Wingate. Drum led Presbyterian with a game-high 22 points. Ballenger netted a career-high 21 points, including five-of-seven three-point field goals. Presbyterian senior guard Chuck Rayford narrowly missed a double-double with eight points and a career-high tying nine assists. --30-- [ Back to Previous Page ]	Email This Story To a Friend Enter your friend's email address: Bookmark this Page!  Related Stories Wingate's Jones completes successful mini-camp with Saints -6/4/2007 Saints draft Wingate's Jones -5/5/2007 Wingate women’s soccer outlasts Mount Olive 1-0 -9/29/2006 Wingate men’s soccer defeats New York Tech -9/26/2006 Wingate edges USC Aiken in women’s soccer -9/22/2006 Wingate men’s soccer falls in OT -9/18/2006 Wingate improves to 3-0 with Queens victory -8/31/2006 Wingate edges Carson-Newman in 1st round -5/12/2006 Wingate & Carson-Newman each take one game -4/17/2006 Wingate wins 700th baseball game -4/13/2006 Wingate baseball takes down Lenoir-Rhyne -4/4/2006 Wingate baseball defeats Newberry 17-7 -3/27/2006 Wingate women eliminated from Sweet 16 -3/16/2006 Wingate women advance to Division II Sweet 16 -3/13/2006 Wingate scores 26 runs in twin bill sweep -3/9/2006 Wingate wins South Atlantic championship -3/6/2006 Wingate advances to semis with 100-72 win -3/2/2006 Wingate closes with win over Carson-Newman -2/27/2006 Wingate rallies past Catawba 94-91 -2/23/2006 Bulldogs outlast Mars Hill 77-70 -2/20/2006
