The Beahawk
Trask Coliseum played host Tuesday
night to an inter-squad exhibition game
of the NBA's Washington Wizards. The
coliseum was packed to maximum ca
pacity with UNCW students, faculty and
staff hoping to see the NBA team and its
most famous executive, Michael Jordan,
a Wilmington native.
The team was split into two squads
(the Blue and White teams), which
played four 10-minute quarters for a
lively UNCW crowd. The final result
of the game saw the White team defeat

Towards the end of the quarter, players
on both sides of the ball began to show
some signs of fatigue.
The second quarter saw the Blue team
leading by a score of 22-18, but that
would soon change. WTiite then went
on a run to take the lead again towards
the end of the second quarter. Leading
the White charge was 6’5” guard, Felipe
Lopez, despite some good defense by the
Blue’s, Cherokee Parks. In the closing
minutes of the half, Blue surged to come
within one point before time expired,
making the halftime score 38-37.

back and would take the lead away for
good, making the score at the end of the
third 61-54.
Throughout the entire fourth quarter,
the Blue team was caught playing catch
up to a White squad that would not give
up the lead. Blue would cut the lead to
5, before falling behind again to 9 points,
despite frantic efforts to foul and stop
the clock.
Statistically, leading the way offen
sively for the White team, Lopez poured
in 21 points on 7-11 shooting from the
field. For the Blue squad, former Mary-
land standout Laron Profit scored 15
points along with three assists. Parks
also put up a good defensive effort for
Blue, finishing the game with six boards
and three blocked shots. As a team.
White posted a shooting percentage of
52 compared to 45 percent produced by
Blue.
The head coach of the of the Wash

WALLACE, N.C. - The UNC
Wilmington men’s golf team fought
back from two-strokes down to
mount a 17-shot lead over Elon Col
lege and win the UNCW/River
Landing Intercollegiate located in
Wallace, N.C., at the River Landing
Golf Course. Even though the
Seahawks played host to 14 colleges
over the two-day tournament, Oct.
2-3, it was really only a two-school
competition between UNCW and
Elon.
The Seahawks, powered by
school record for the lowest team
score for a round on
Monday. Gee, who is
from Surrey, England,
shot a personal best 67
for round one, while
Brown, a Walnut Cove,
N.C. native, was one-
stroke behind at 68,
also a career best.
