Wesleyan Defends Home Court with Victory Over William Peace

N.C. Wesleyan put together a strong and composed performance in a 68–50 USA South Conference victory over William Peace on January 20 at Everett Gymnasium, controlling the game from the opening tip and never relinquishing the lead. The Bishops jumped out to a 17–8 advantage after the first quarter and continued to build separation by winning every period, using efficient offense and disciplined defense to dictate the pace. Wesleyan shot 51.0 percent from the field while consistently attacking the paint, finishing with 40 points inside and 11 fast-break points. Defensively, the Bishops held William Peace to 26.2 percent shooting and limited scoring opportunities throughout the night, forcing turnovers and keeping the Pacers from finding any sustained rhythm.

Dorinda Jordan led N.C. Wesleyan with an outstanding effort, scoring 21 points on 9-of-13 shooting while adding five rebounds, three assists, and a steal to anchor the Bishops on both ends of the floor. Anaya Hall followed closely with 20 points and nine rebounds, consistently pressuring the defense and finishing strong around the basket. Harmony Martin provided a spark off the bench with six points, including two three-pointers, while T'Miya Bryant added six points on perfect shooting from the field. Alexandria Belton contributed across the stat sheet with six rebounds, two blocks, and four steals, helping fuel Wesleyan's defensive effort. With balanced scoring, strong shooting efficiency, and consistent defensive execution, the Bishops secured a convincing home conference win and continued to build momentum in USA South play. Your Bishops will be back in action on Saturday, January 24, 2026, when they travel to Pfeiffer for a USA South Conference matchup.
