Hargrave hosted a double-header on campus against Catawba College and Belmont Abbey College on January 21st. The Tigers emerged victorious in both games. Game recaps are below:

Hargrave 110, Catawba 100

The Tigers built a lead that would stretch as high as 28 in the second half before a scrappy Catawba team would fight back to bring the final score to a respectable margin in the game’s waning minutes. Hargrave was fueled by a balanced scoring attack that saw 5 players reach double figures, led by Trey McGowens who scored 19 points to go along with 6 steals. Tre King (17 points, 9 rebounds), Collin Blanchard (17 points, 3 3-pointers), Connor Crabtree (12 points, 6 assists) and Christian Lorng (10 points, 11 rebounds) all eclipsed 10 points in the win.

Similar to the first game of the double-header, the Tigers pushed out a 26 point second-half lead that would be sliced in half over the game’s final few minutes by a resilient Belmont Abbey squad. D.J. Myers put the team on his back throughout the contest, stuffing the stat sheet with a 20 point, 13 rebound game on 10-11 shooting from the field. Connor Crabtree (19 points, 5 3-pointers made) continued his hot shooting season, while Myles Parker (15 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists) and Tre King (15 points, 9 rebounds) both filled the stat sheets in the win.
