College basketball is back in the Lowcountry, as the USC Beaufort Sand Sharks are set to tip off their first season as full NCAA Division II members this weekend. The Sand Sharks women hosted Claflin for a scrimmage Saturday, pulling away in the fourth quarter for a 60-52 win behind a strong performance from freshman Courtney Campbell, guarded here by former Bluffton standout Tacoya Heyward. Campbell, a Hilton Head Prep alum, excelled at point guard and fueled a pivotal USCB run. The Sand Sharks women open at home against Ferrum College at 5:30 p.m. Friday before hosting UVA Wise at 7:30 p.m. Saturday in The Cove. Justin Jarrett/LowcoSports.com
