Sharks Rout Riverside 79-49
Sharks back on the winning track following an off night vs. Providence
Ponte Vedra atoned for an off-night vs Providence by bouncing back with a convincing 79-49 win over Riverside. It was number 250 as the Sharks begin their 17th season of varsity basketball. Four Sharks reached double figures for the Sharks with junior Maddox Palmer leading the way with 20 points. David Sanchez netted 17 points, and Trace Westercamp 11. Ryan Speace got the starting nod in place of an injuted Paul Burkhardt and came through in a big way with 14 points by connecting of six of his seven two-point attempts. Alex Katsikas did not reach double figures, but he led the Sharks in two departments with eight assists and four steals. The Sharks were consistent throughout the entire game as they scored 18 or more points in all four quarters. After a fairly tight first hald with the Sharks on top 39-30, the second half was all Ponte Vedra as they more than doubled the score over the Generals in the second half 40-19.
