The USC Salkehatchie Indians basketball team is getting set for two HOME games this weekend against Region X foes, Spartanburg Methodist College and Brunswick Community College.
The Indians will start the home stand on Saturday against Spartanburg Methodist College at 3:00 pm. The Indians fell in the Region X championship game to the Pioneers the past two seasons.
"Of course this is a big game for our program, the Pioneers are the top team in our region and we know to be the best, we have to beat the best. I tip my hat to them because they play solid basketball and have been at the top for some time. I hope Saturday we will come out and play focused," said USC Salkehatchie head coach Travis Garrett.
The Indians will again be home on Sunday against Brunswick Community College at 3:00 pm. Brunswick lost to SMC by two points in overtime earlier this year.
"Brunswick is another very well coached team and they will be ready to play. We have always battled them hard and they play us hard. I wouldn't expect anything less than a war on Sunday. We have to understand that teams want to beat us as much as we want to beat them. Our guys are prepared and I hope everyone will come out this weekend and watch some great basketball teams," said Garrett.
Again, the Indians face SMC on Saturday at 3:00 pm at the gym in Walterboro and will play Brunswick CC on Sunday at 3:00 pm.
The Indians are 13-7 on the season and 1-0 in Region X play.
