BEHOLD THE GREEN AND
GOLD--- NORFOLK STATE
BEAT BETHUNE COOKMAN FOR
THEIR FOURTH STRAIGHT WIN
LAST NIGHT--- AND
LEADING THE WAY---
JOHNATHAN WADE--- 31
POINTS TO LEAD THE
SPARTANS---
OUT OF NOWHERE----HE'S
MAKING HIS CASE FOR
CONFERENCE PLAYER
OF THE YEAR----THE 6 FOOT
4 REDSHIRT SENIOR NOW
LEADS THE MEAC WITH
ALMOST 20
POINTS A NIGHT--- WHICH
IS EVEN A LITTLE
SURPRISING TO HIS
HEAD COACH---
"HE'S KIND OF SURPRISED
EVERYONE. WE KIND OF
THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO
BE OUR LEADING SCORER,
BECAUSE LAST YEAR WE SAW
IT IN PRACTICE. SOME
DAYS, HE WOULD HAVE BIG
19-20 POINTS A GAME? NO.
I
DON'T THINK HE EVEN DID.
HE PROBABLY WILL SAY HE
DID. HE'S FOUND HIS WAY
TO 19 POINTS A GAME, AND
WE
NEED EVERY BIT OF IT. I'M
HAPPY WITH WHAT I'VE
MORE. I'M GRATEFUL FOR
THE
OPPORTUNITY COACH HAS
GIVEN ME TO LEAD MY TEAM,
AND I JUST NEED TO KEEP
PUSHING FORWARD, KEEP
GRINDING. "

THEIR LATEST LOSS---A
2-POINT DEFEAT THANKS
TO A DUNK WITH 6 SECONDS
LEFT AT SOUTH CAROLINA
STATE ON WEDNESDAY---THAT
DROPPED THEM TO 3 AND 3
IN THE MEAC--- BUT HEAD
COACH ED JOYNER KNOWS HIS
TEAM IS YOUNG AND THEY'RE
STILL LEARNING HOW TO WIN
GAMES----
"WE KNEW THERE COULD BE
SOME BUMBS IN THE ROAD,
DIDN'T KNOW WHAT KIND. TO
ME, IT KIND OF DEPENDS
ON HOW YOU DEFINE
STRUGGLE. YOU SAY
STRUGGLE, I SAY WE WERE
JUST LEARNING SOME
VALUABLE LESSONS TO GET
US READY FOR CONFERENCE
PLAY, GET US READY FOR
THE TOURNAMENT, AND
THINGS
DOWN THE ROAD. I'M NOT
GOING TO SAY I'M TOTALLY
PLEASED, BUT I'M NOT
UNHAPPY WITH THE WAY
OUR KIDS ARE RESPONDING,
AND THE WAY THEY'RE
GROWING UP. "
