Augusta University swept Saturday’s games over Middle Georgia with the women winning 69-44 and the men posting a 91-71 victory at Christenberry Fieldhouse.
The wins weren’t the only cause for celebration as the Jags honored Coach Dip Metress who recently picked up his 600th victory. Feb 21 was also Senior Day and homecoming.
