Charlotte, NC – Behind four double-figure scorers including three 20-point scorers and a 33-3 run hallway through the second half, the Charlotte 49ers (1-0) defeated the Newberry Wolves (1-1), 101-88, in their season-opener in Halton Arena. This marked the sixth time during the Coach Mark Price's tenure as head coach at Charlotte that the 49ers topped the 100 point mark.
"Good win. A win is a win," Price said. "I knew all week this team was going to be dangerous when we played tonight. They just play a good style, a style you're not used to and it's hard to prepare for.
