The Sand Shark women put up a fight on the road but came up short in a 73-64 loss despite 18 points and 8 rebounds from Janiyah Heyward and 13 points and six boards from Jada Young.

We also had a makeup game on the high school hoops slate, as Hampton County took care of business at home against Edisto with both the Hurricanes girls and boys earning lopsided wins to open Region 6-2A play.

And the Region 7-4A wrestling standings have started to shake out after a flurry of action over the past two days, as May River cleared a huge hurdle in its quest for another region crown with two road wins Tuesday, trouncing Lucy Beckham and rallying past James Island for a 45-31 win that keeps the Sharks in the driver’s seat.

We’ll take a deeper look at the recent results and how they impact the playoff landscape plus much more local sports talk on tonight’s episode of the LowcoSports Lowdown, tipping off at 10 p.m. on the Lowco Media Network.
