ETTRICK, VA. – Sophomore Tevin Andrews scored 22 points and hauled in 13 rebounds, while junior Isaih Harrison scored 20 points with 16 rebounds as Apprentice School jumped out to a 13-0 lead and knocked off Virginia State 84-68 in Ettrick.

The win was an extra-special one for Apprentice School Head Coach Franklin Chatman as he scored a win over his alma mater having graduated from Virginia State in 1994.

Harrison hit a pair of free throws at the 14:02 mark to put Apprentice School (3-1) ahead 13-0.  Virginia State went on a 19-6 run to cut the deficit to 23-20 on a Dominic Parker 3-pointer with 9:13 left.  The Builders went on a 15-4 run to push the advantage back up to 38-24 on a layup from Andrews with 2:48 left in the half.

In the second half, the Trojans cut the deficit to seven points on two occasions as a Brandon Plummer jumper with eight minutes left brought the hosts to 66-59.  Apprentice School pushed the advantage back up to 75-62 with 3:56 left on a Harrison 3-point play.

Freshman Darrell Fenton chipped in 13 points while fellow freshman Terrence Palmer added 11 for Apprentice School who shot 15-of-24 from the floor in the second half (62.5%) and hit 32-of-58 (55.2%) from the floor for the game.  Justin Bess paced Virginia State (1-1) with 22 points, while Plummer added 16.

The Builders now go to the southern part of North Carolina next weekend as they'll face another pair of NCAA Division II teams in UNC Pembroke on November 28 and St. Andrews on November 29.
