NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Curtis Dixon (1,503 career points) and Coryon Ross (1,021 career points) each surpassed milestone point totals on Friday night versus Trevecca Nazarene.

Dixon -- a 6'3 senior from Charleston, S.C. -- accounted for 19 points against Trevecca to push him over the 1,500-point mark.
 
In '08-'09, Dixon is averaging 15.5 points per game, while shooting a team-high 54 percent from the field.
 
Dixon's career-high point total came this season at Mountain State University on Nov. 25 when he poured in 35 against the 2nd-ranked team in NAIA Division-I.
 
Dixon -- who ranks third on the team in rebounding at 4.7 per game -- has been a potent scorer ever since he set foot on the BC campus and his career average of 16.1 ppg reflects that consistency.
 
Dixon has made an astounding 204 three-point field goals during his career and has been successful on 40 percent of his attempts from behind the arc.
 
Ross -- a 6'3 senior from St. Petersburg, Fla. -- netted 28 points to lead Bluefield past Trevecca as the Rams (ranked 19th in NAIA D-II) picked up their seventh win of the season.
 
Ross is averaging 19.1 points per game this season, which leads BC. 
 
After receiving limited playing time as a freshman, Ross -- who has averaged 11 points per game during his career -- has increased his point average each of his four seasons with the Rams.
 
He exploded for a career-high 35 points on Nov. 19 at home versus Virginia Intermont.
 
Ross has proven to be quite versatile on the basketball floor, as he is pulling down 5.9 (2nd on team) rebounds per game in '08-'09 and averages a team-high 2.5 steals per contest.
 
Ross is shooting 47 percent from the field this season, while connecting on 39 percent of 3-point attempts and hitting 78 percent from the foul line.
