The second annual Anchor versus WXIN basketball game did little to quench the long-time rivalry between the two largest media organizations on campus. If anything, the match only served to inspire a whole new level of competition.

The game, which was attended by more than 70 students and several alumni last Thursday night, March 20, on the center court at the Recreation Center, marked just the second time that WXIN Rhode Island College Radio and The Anchor have faced off in friendly competition in recent memory. The Anchor team, who in a narrow upset victory defeated WXIN 38-33 in a match last spring, took last week’s contest by a final score of 47-37.
