Wolf, Tars Hold off Sharks!!

Coming off of one of the biggest wins in program history on Saturday the Rollins College Tars were back in action at home against the Sharks of Nova Southeastern. For the second straight game the Tars opened up a double digit lead only to see it evaporate. Lemar Dyer had a chance to win it with a pair of free throws with 1.2 seconds left in regulation but would miss the first and make the second. This would set up a overtime frame dominated by Nick Wolf. Nick would score 8 points in the extra session including the game winning 3 with 2.8 seconds to go for the 86-83 Tars win. The Tars (11-3) would tally three players in double figures. Wolf would post 29, Myk Brown had 16 and Brock Blanchard would nail four treys to tally his 12 points. Matt Robertson and Nikola Baran would tally 9 points each. The Tars shot 48 percent from the floor and hit 13 of 32 from long range.

Nova Southeastern fell to 8-6 on the season despite a game effort. Three Shark players would score in double numbers on Wednesday night. Robb Hunington led the way with 20, Brian Cahill netted 19 and Alex Gynes 12 for the Sharks. Nova shot 46 percent from the floor and 12 of 30 from long range. Nova was a very costly 9 of 15 at the charity stripe. The Tars would out rebound Nova 35-31. Nova would turn the ball over 18 times while the Tars would have 22 miscues. Rollins will be back in action Saturday afternoon at the Bob Martinez Center vs the University of Tampa. Tip time is set for 4 PM.
