Rams Rally to Defeat Bulldogs in Thrilling Comeback

Bluefield, VA.- In a thrilling display of resilience and skill, the Bluefield University Rams secured a hard-fought victory against the Tennessee Wesleyan Bulldogs on December 10, 2024, at Dome Gymnasium. The home team surmounted a halftime deficit to clinch a 91-85 win in this AAC match-up. 

The game began with the Bulldogs taking an early lead, setting the halftime score at 48-40 in favor of the visitors. However, the Rams, led by standout performances from Elijah White and Quantavis McKinney, orchestrated a dynamic second-half comeback. White, who scored 22 points, along with 3 rebounds and 2 steals, and McKinney, who added 21 points and 6 rebounds, were instrumental in shifting the momentum in favor of Bluefield University.

Other significant contributors included Justin Wiggins with 10 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 steals; DeAndre Miles with 12 points; RJ Johnson with 6 points and 5 rebounds; and Donavon Martin, who added 8 points, 8 rebounds, and 3 blocks to the Rams' total. Their combined efforts not only erased the deficit but also ensured a lead that secured the win.

Looking ahead, the Rams will face UNC Asheville in an away game in Asheville, North Carolina. Scheduled for December 11, just a day after their triumph over the Bulldogs, the team aims to maintain their momentum.
