WILMINGTON, N.C. (Interstat) — The Cape Fear Community College Sea Devils will look to halt a four-game skid when they host the Denmark Technical College Panthers in a men’s junior college basketball matchup on Saturday.

The game, set for March 7, 2026, at Cape Fear’s home court, is a rematch of a Jan. 21 meeting that saw the Sea Devils secure a 102-85 road victory. In that contest, Cape Fear’s offense proved too much for a Denmark Tech squad that has struggled defensively all season.

Cape Fear (6-11) enters on a losing streak but showed resilience in its last outing, falling 65-64 in overtime to Richard Bland on Wednesday. The Sea Devils have been competitive at times, with four of their 11 losses coming by single digits or in overtime.

Denmark Tech (1-15) is mired in a 15-game losing streak since its lone win. The Panthers are coming off a 156-106 road loss to USC Salkehatchie on Wednesday, highlighting a season-long trend of defensive difficulties. In their last five games, they have allowed an average of 119.4 points.

A player to watch for the Panthers is Riley Durant, though his recent playing time has been limited. He logged just one minute in a loss to Brunswick on Feb. 22.

Despite the Sea Devils’ recent struggles and the Panthers’ dismal record, Interstat’s game simulator projects a highly unusual deadlock, forecasting a 100-100 final score. This suggests the potential for a high-paced offensive game, a scenario that has been common in Denmark Tech’s contests.

For Cape Fear, the matchup represents a critical opportunity to regain momentum and improve its standing before the season’s final stretch. For Denmark Tech, it is another chance to search for its first victory since November and break a streak of futility that has defined its season.

The Panthers will face a quick turnaround, traveling to play Brunswick on Sunday.
