BEATRICE – The SCC Men’s Basketball team is ranked 6th in the nation with a record of 9-1 on the season.
SCC entered the polls two weeks ago ranked 10th in the NJCAA Division II rankings.
Southeast’s last appearance in the polls was two years ago when they were ranked 18th in the preseason.
Freshman guard, Delquan Thomas from Louisville, Ky., said, “It’s just an honor to be where we’re at right now.”
“I’m happy with the results so far,” said SCC Head Coach, Joel Wooton, “we have some areas that we need to continue to improve, but we are improving.”
Next week, SCC will play two Division I teams. Thomas said, “It’s going to take a team effort to win some of the tougher games we have coming up.”
This weekend the Storm is hosting the Holiday Classic Tournament.
SCC will be face Doane JV at 8 p.m. on Saturday.
“Our goal is to become No. 1,” added Thomas, “and we aren’t going to stop working hard until we get it.”
