Spread the ball. Run the ball. Share the ball.
Angelina College’s Roadrunners put together a balanced offensive attack on Saturday, finishing the game with 20 team assists in an 84-66 win over Coastal Bend Community College at Shands Gymnasium.
The win makes it two straight in Region XIV play for the Roadrunners (6-8, 2-3), who knocked off Panola College this past Saturday.
Four Roadrunners topped double figures: Errol White led the way with 20 points and six rebounds; Quandre Bullock, who has hit 10 points or more in every game this season, notched a double-double with 18 points and 10 rebounds, adding five assists to his totals. Caleb Johnson finished with 16 points, eight rebounds and four assists; and Zach Selvage contributed 11 points and five assists.
The ‘Runners didn’t slouch on defense either, forcing 19 Cougar turnovers and converting those into 22 points – many of which came on AC fast breaks. White, Bullock, Selvage and Johnson each swiped three steals in the game.
Lonzo Rand led the Cougars (4-14, 2-7) with 14 points. Jayden Williams added 13.
