HUNTSVILLE, Ala. – The fourth-ranked University of Alabama in Huntsville men's basketball team will continue its busy stretch, travelling to Pensacola, Fla., for the West Florida Thanksgiving Classic as the Chargers (2-1) will face Tuskegee on Friday at 4 p.m. before turning around to face Albany State at the same time on Saturday.
 
The meeting on Friday marks the first since 1998 against Tuskegee, and the Chargers have never played Albany State.
 
A pair of Chargers leads the Blue and White in scoring as both Jaime Smith and Wayne Dedrick are averaging 12.0 points per game.
 
Both have been strong from 3-point land as Smith – the nation's leader in 3-point field goal percentage a season ago – has connected on 45.5 of his attempts while Dedrick has a 3-point success rate of 42.9 percent in his freshman campaign. Sophomore Ronnie Mack has been the most impressive Charger from beyond the arc, however, hitting seven of his 13 tries for a 3-point field goal percentage of 53.8.
 
The strong showing for that trio has allowed the team to hit 8.7 treys per contest which ranks second in the Gulf South Conference to Christian Brothers.
 
Live stats for the contest will be available from goargos.com, and the game will be aired locally in Huntsville on 97.7 The Zone.
