Westminster Catawba, starting to find stride, stops SouthLake
BY LANGSTON WERTZ JR.
Just in time for the playoffs, Ed Addie’s Westminster Catawba team is beginning to hit its stride.
“I hope so,” Addie said after Tuesday’s 62-44 win at home over SouthLake Christian.
“We’re trying to figure a couple things out. We don’t have a true point guard, so we’re having to play a couple different people there, but it’s working.”
Since suffering a 3-game losing streak earlier this month, Addie’s team has won four of its past five games. On Tuesday, Jalen Booker got his team going scoring several early buckets and Kenyon Addie got hot outside.
Star Tim Hall had 24 points and 20 rebounds. Westminster got control early in this one, leading 33-19 at halftime. SouthLake Christian (8-21) lost its second straight game. Senior Christian Monroe, son of coach Rodney Monroe, the former N.C. State star, had a team-high 17 points.
