Williams (18 points, 5 rebounds) and Tony Goodman (15 points, 6 assists) led Gaston College, which broke open a close game late in the first half to cruise to a non-conference victory over the Region 10 Division II Patriots."Those are guys we're going to count on - Clash inside and for his rebounding and post presence, Tony being the sophomore guard coming back and being a leader and D.J. is one of those 'sky is the limit' kind of guys," Rhinos coach Benny Moss said.Gaston College actually trailed by as many as four points early in the first half before taking the lead for good at 18-17 with 11:24 to play before halftime.The Rhinos led by as many as 25 points in the second half before taking the 13-point victory.Peters' 25 rebounds was the highest single game total in school history since Charles Hamilton racked up three games of 30 or more rebounds in the 1969-70 season. It's the highest single game rebounding total since Gaston College restarted its program in the 2021-22 season - and surpassed the previous high of 16 set twice by Kaleb Siler last season.Gaston College continues its three-game homestand next week. The Rhinos host Catawba Valley Community College at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday and host Central Carolina Community College at 2 p.m. on Nov. 15.The Rhinos' Saturday home opener was their first game since sweeping three games in the Caldwell Tech Classic last weekend."To come back after last weekend and win was important," Moss said. "Those three games in three days wore on us a little bit. We're beat up a little bit. Kaleb Santos didn't play today with a hurt knee and we had other guys slowed with some other things."So to battle through that and come back and win our home opener is a huge positive.</div></body>
