UMES Mauls Savannah State Tigers, 87-57

PRINCESS ANNE, Md. – The University of Maryland Eastern Shore men’s basketball team ran away with a 30-point victory on Sunday evening, defeating Savannah State 87-57.

UMES (10-9) climbed over .500 on the season with their biggest conference win since 2001.

With the victory, UMES improves to 10-9 and 3-1 in the MEAC. UMES currently sits in fourth place in the MEAC standings, behind North Carolina Central, Norfolk State and Hampton.

This is the latest that a Hawk team has held a winning record since the 1993-94 season when UMES finished at 16-12. The win already clinches the first season with double digit victories since 2010-2011.

The win also represented the third straight MEAC win for UMES, going back to the North Carolina A&T victory in December.

It’s the first stretch of three consecutive conference wins since late in the 2010-11 season.

With the 30-point margin, UMES recorded their biggest conference win by margin of victory since December 3, 2001 when the Hawks defeated Florida A&M by a final score of 85-54.

The Hawks will try to extend those streaks when they battle South Carolina State on Monday night. The Bulldogs will enter the contest with a 5-14 record, and a 3-2 mark in the MEAC.
