Fulton 59

Sheffield 46

Playing on his future homecourt, MTSU signee James Gallman scored 14 points and helped the defending AA state champions continue the road to a repeat with a tough 59-46 win over Memphis Sheffield.

Fulton was balanced in the scoring column as usual with junior Jalen Steele taking high honors with 16 and classmate Robert Boyd adding 14.

Boyd was a catalyst on both ends of the court with timely scoring including a deep three at the third quarter buzzer and a great defensive floor game as well.

Cordario Golden led the Knights with 13 points and 8 boards.
