Hewitt and the Tornado embarked in only one game this past week but it proved to be a statement game that opened up their Conference Carolinas schedule. Led by Hewitt's 32 points, the Tornado knocked off preseason favorite Limestone College, 75-67. Hewitt hit 80 percent of all his shots from the field (12-for-15) and shot 77.7 percent from three-point range, going 7-for-9. Twenty-one of his 32 points were scored from distance.
If his offensive output was not enough Hewitt also added two steals, three assists, three boards (2 offensive) and made one block while only committing two fouls in 38 minutes played.
King is 6-2 overall in the season and 1-0 in league play. The Tornado host regional rival Milligan College tonight at 7:00 p.m. at the Student Center Complex (Bristol, Tenn.) to open their home schedule before hosting Augusta State on Saturday, Dec. 10 as part of a men's/women's doubleheader. The Lady will host Lincoln Memorial University, beginning at 5:00 p.m., with the men's team to follow in the nightcap.
