College basketball: City's teams among contenders as stretch run begins
By Jeff Mills jeff.mills@greensboro.com 17 hrs ago
MEN
N.C. A&T Aggies
Record: 6-0 MEAC, 11-9 overall. Streak: Won 7.
Up next: At Florida A&M (5-2 MEAC, 8-14), 6 p.m. Saturday.
How’s it going? The Aggies hit their stride in the new year, and they along with Norfolk State are the only unbeaten teams remaining in the MEAC. A&T’s start is even more remarkable considering the Aggies are 4-0 in MEAC road games. Junior guard Qua Copeland averages a team-high 11.4 points, and shooter Terry Harris (10.2 points) is hitting 44.7 percent of his three-point attempts. Point guard Kam Langley, a sophomore from Southwest Guilford, is 13th in the nation averaging 6.5 assists, and slasher Milik Gantz (9.8 points) is shooting 57.4 percent from the floor. Big man Ron Jackson has averaged 20 points off the bench in the last three games.
WOMEN
N.C. A&T Aggies
Record: 6-0 MEAC, 9-10 overall. Streak: Won 6.
Up next: At Florida A&M (1-6 MEAC, 3-16), 4 p.m. Saturday.
How’s it going? The defending league champs finished 23-9 last season, and after struggling during their non-conference games, they are unbeaten since New Year’s Day and back atop the MEAC standings. Junior guard Cinia McCray has averaged a team-high 13.0 points since the start of league play. C’coriea Foy, a 6-foot junior guard, averages 12.8 points and 5.8 rebounds against the MEAC.
