The Sloppy Joes just can't seem to clinch another victory.

They faced the Dream Team Part II in the first game on Feb. 24. Throughout the game they showed signs of giving up, but they still managed to keep the game close in the end, holding the Dream Team II's Charles Hill to only 11 points.

Hill, a computer major, said, �The only reason I scored 11 points was because I was in a car wreck and injured my shooting hand.� The Sloppy Joes didn't buy that excuse. They said they just kept Hill from scoring his usual.

Hill's teammate Dayne Styles, physical therapist major, added, �The team isn't playing like we used to, but when playoffs come we will play better.� Styles scored 13 points.

Leading scorers for the Sloppy Joes were Travis Harris with 8 points and Mack Rolling and Stephen Mink with 7 each.

Dream Team Part II captured their fourth victory over the Sloppy Joes, 31-25.

Following that game the Pacers took on the Sloppy Joes.

Although the Sloppy Joes are on a losing streak, they still continue to put up a fight. Neal Ragsdale, the key player for the Sloppy Joes, tried to keep his team in the game, but his effort wasn't good enough.

The Pacers were just too much for them and appeared to be somewhat in shape. The Pacers outran every team on the court and played extremely well together.

At the half the score was 21-20.

Ragsdale, a physical education major, said, �We can't win; we always find a way to beat ourselves. It is really aggravating.�

Brandon Buford, red hot player for the Pacers, had 25 and teammate Ric Osbourne contributed 10.

As for the Sloppy Joes, Mink had 11 and Harris had 14.

The final score was 39-46 with the Pacers taking home the �W�.
