The Shoreline Community College Men's Basketball Team dropped a 102-81 game to the Whatcom Community College Orcas in the SCC Gym on Saturday afternoon in NWAACC Northern Region action.

SCC played well in the opening 10 minutes, with 7 lead changes and 5 ties early in the game, but WCC pulled away in the second part of the first half to lead 51-37 at the break and the Orcas put another 51 points up in the second half to lead the game by 34 at one point and to win the game by 21. 

Shoreline was led by sophomore Kadeem Stewart with 19 points and freshman Steve Del Veccio with 18. Joshua Youngblood and Dean Viena added 14 points each to close out SCC's double figure scoring.

SCC was out rebounded 56-33, as the Dolphins continue to play without NWAACC leading rebounder, Nashon George, who has a high ankle sprain and has missed the last 3 games for SCC.

The Dolphins fall to 2-14 on the season and 1-6 in the region. Whatcom improves to 13-6 and 5-2. SCC travels to Northwest Indian College on Wednesday for a non-region game, and then begins the second half of the NWAACC Northern Region schedule against Everett CC next Saturday in the SCC Gym. Everett defeated the Dolphins 121-116 in that meeting.
