“We played a very intense game,” Francis Marion coach Woodie Jackson Jr. said. “The defense gave a very good effort tonight. We had the opportunity to work in some things, set some structures.”

The Rams led 41-15 at the half and opened a comfortable 63-27 advantage going into the final period.

“The offense showed some patience tonight,” Jackson said. “We don’t hesitate playing young kids when they can be productive.”
