After flying high against the Aynor Blue Jackets last Tuesday, the Waccamaw Warriors came back down to earth. Waccamaw fell just short of Dillon by a score of 46-43. While losing is never fun, Waccamaw can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' South Carolina basketball rankings (they are ranked 203rd, while Dillon is ranked 94th).

Perhaps the best among them was Colin Behney, who scored 15 points along with two steals. As a matter of fact, that's the most points Behney has scored all season. Dutch Kerns was another key contributor, scoring seven points along with five steals and two blocks.
Waccamaw has not been sharp recently, as they've lost nine of their last 11 matches, which put a noticeable dent in their 5-12 record this season. As for Dillon, the win was the fourth in a row for them, bringing their record for this year to 12-5.
