UNCW Completes Regular Season Sweep of Charleston

WILMINGTON, North Carolina – UNCW's Khamari McGriff, Bo Montgomery and Harlan Obioha combined for 48 points to pace five Seahawks in double figures as the UNCW men's basketball team completed a regular season sweep of Charleston with an 86-66 win at a sold-out Trask Coliseum on Thursday night.

The Seahawks ran their winning streak to a season-high nine games to stand 21-5 and 11-2 in the Coastal Athletic Association. The Cougars dipped to 19-7 and 9-4 in the CAA.

UNCW shot 51.5 percent in the game and built a double-digit lead 10 minutes into the first half, 25-15, with a game-high 10-0 run.

The aforementioned trio each scored 16 points with Obioha recording his fourth double-double with 12 rebounds. UNCW's Nolan Hodge and Sean Moore each scored 11.

Four Cougars reached double-digits: AJ Smith (14), Ante Brzovic (13), Deywilk Tavarez (12) and Derrin Boyd (10).

The Seahawks, who carried a 46-35 lead into halftime, did not allow Charleston to pull within single digits the entirety of the second half and capped the 20-point win with a Montgomery exclamation dunk with 25 seconds remaining to make UNCW fifth-year Head Coach Takayo Siddle the fast UNCW bench boss to 100 career wins, which the program achieved in 144 games.

UNCW looks for its third 10-game win streak in the last four years at the annual Homecoming Game vs. Elon on Saturday at 7 p.m.
