NEWPORT NEWS, Va. - Christopher Newport University heads back on the road on Wednesday, traveling to Salisbury, Md., to take on the Sea Gulls of Salisbury University. Tip off time is set for 7:00 p.m. at the Maggs Center on the SU campus.

The Captains are ranked 14th in the nation for the second consecutive week, and have a record of 17-4. John Krikorian's squad is coming off a 76-57 triumph on Saturday at the Freeman Center over UC Santa Cruz. The victory was CNU's third straight and eighth in its last nine games. Fifth-year senior All-American Jahn Hines and sophomore Toa Hollenbeck led the CNU attack with 17 points each. Sophomore Ethan Ward added 16 points, and junior Collin Hines registered his fourth double-double of the season by contributing ten points and ten rebounds.

The game will be the 54th in the all-time series, with the Captains holding a 37-16 advantage. The schools split their two games last season, with each winning on its home floor.
