Overstreet’s double-double, Price’s 25 propel USCB to dominate first win over Morris

BLUFFTON – Head coach Ron Fudala's plan for the first play was either a slam dunk or alley-oop, hoping to electrify a sold-out crowd. While it wasn't either of those, Zach Bowen drilled a triple that sent the Sand Shark faithful into a frenzy. USCB went on to route Morris 130-88 Saturday night backed by Marcus Overstreet's double-double, and Kevaughn Price and Quahrn Anderson's 20-plus performances.
 
"I cannot be more proud of the efforts of our men," Fudala said. "They have put the work in and earned the day. The USCB student body and community are the ones that really deserve the shout-out. Basketball in the Lowcountry is here and it's here to stay."
 
Overstreet and Price both posted 25 points, while Overstreet picked up 17 boards. Anderson collected 20 points off the bench and six different players scored in double figures.
 
Following Bowen's triple, Price put up fast break layup and USCB went on an 11-4 run over the first three minutes. Beaufort kept its seven-point lead after Price sent shock waves through the USCB Recreation Center with the two-handed jam. He'd do it again, extending the Sand Sharks lead to 10 after picking off a pass from Charles Morgan and throwing it down. Anderson got into the dunk action putting back two huge slam dunks assisted by Price giving Beaufort a 14-point advantage. The first half highlight reel continued as Price threw down an alley-oop from Shae Champine.
 
"It's great to go out there and pick up our first win," said Price. "We definitely want to thank our Sand Shark family for coming out and bringing the energy from the start."
 
The onslaught continued in the second half as USCB pushed its lead to 31 after a Kobe Shewry triple and Dylan Lewis made it 95-60 with a slam dunk. The Sand Sharks began firing threes as Kyle Polce and Tasso Sfanos connected from beyond the arc. The Melbourne native finished the scoring off with another triple, sending the Sand Shark fans home happy.
 
USCB hits the road for the first time on Wednesday as they'll square off with Morris again in Sumter. Tip-off is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.
