Trojans dominate the Spartans

DaMetrius Upchurch pours in 22 points and Cordero Hunter adds 13 as the Trojans roll to the 73-41 win at SSS. The Trojans use a 25-0 run to break open a 10-6 game en route to a 37-16 lead at halftime. Garner maintains a thirty-point advantage through most of the second half, allowing Coach Gray to give sizable minutes to his reserves. Stacy Carroway hits all four of his shots for eight points and pulls down eight rebounds as well, part of the huge 26-14 edge on the boards for Garner. Though Upchurch hits 7-for-10, as a whole it was not one of the Trojans better shooting nights as the finish 26-for-54 (48%, their first sub-.500 night in 8 games). The win is Garner's fifth in a row since the holiday break. The Trojans are back in action Friday night when they host GNRC rival, SE Raleigh:
