There was a lot of action going on around the CIAA, MEAC, SWAC and SIAC on Saturday. Here are a couple of the highlights we came across from Jan. 9.
5. Elizabeth City State’s Miykael Faulcon scores his 1,000th career point on this step-back jumper. Faulcon finished with 25 points and 7 assists in ECSU’s 81-71 win over Johnson C. Smith.
