High Point Opens Season Hosting Campbell in NAIA Tilt
High Point College coach Bobby Vaughn says the Panthers are ready for Campbell College in Alumni Gym tonight. Ron Loewenthal will start at forward, with Tatgenhorst, Picka, Littles, and Witt rounding out the lineup as Campbell, led by Johnny Marshbanks and Ken Faulkner, seeks an early-season edge without Cordell Wise. The NAIA realignment adds urgency, making this nonconference clash nearly as pivotal as a Carolinas game.
