The Volunteer State Community College men’s basketball team scored a 98-95 win over the Bethel University Wildcat junior varsity team Nov. 5, before losing to the Vincennes University Trailblazers, 98-38 the next night.

The Trailblazers held the Pioneer guard George Stanberry to 20 points one night after he dropped 38 on Bethel.  No other Vol State player had more than four points against Vincennes.

“We got beat by a top-five team in the country,” said head coach Rusty Melvin.  “They’re stronger, faster, they are well coached, and last year were 33-2 and finished third in the national tournament.”
