6 seed Falcons prepare to face 3 seed Wingate Saturday at 12pm

Story By : Wyatt Hall

On their way to Lincoln Memorial Univeristy in Tennessee the Falcons stopped in Knoxville for last minute practice before the NCAA tourney begins. 

Montevallo is the six seed in the Southeast region tournament marking their seventh straight NCAA tournament appearance and will face off against the three seeded Wingate Bulldogs. 

The Falcons are coming off a disappointing loss against Lander in the PBC Tournament in which Senior Guard Bryant Orange rode the bench most of the game with four fouls only adding five points.  

Orange has averaged 16.8 points per game this season and has been on fire as of late doing everything for the Falcons getting the nickname "The Floor General".

 At times the  duo of Orange and fellow Senior Guard Terrell Lipkins (21.7 PPG) has been unstoppable. 

Wingate and Montevallo have played two similar opponents this season both  going 1-1. 

The Bulldogs are led by Forward Isaiah Cureton who is averaging 14 PPG . 

Tip-Off is set for 12pm central time.
