NOTE:  We had 3 players mis-identified on the broadcast.  Jonathan Meyer was actually T.J. Ruschman, Ruschman was Drew Green.  Drew Green was actually Drew Meyer and the unidentified player wearing Number 12 was Jon Meyer.  Apologies, I mis-copied a few of them – That’s on me. 

On paper our Mustangs are the superior shooting team from beyond the arc, and when we are hitting them we can be quite formidable, BUT when we are not, and our opponents nail 12 of them, it spells a long night for our Mustangs who were never seriously in contention Friday night on the Carothers Road Hill.  Credit the Bred’s defense, which seemed relentless in making us adjust our shots, and rarely did we find 3-point shooter wide open.  In fact, No Mustangs scored double-figures, despite ten of us putting points on the scoreboard.  We were led by Carson Hesse, who is rounding back into form, and Nick Cozzi with 8 points each.

NCC nailed four first quarter 3-pointers setting the tone, as we fell behind 17-7, and they pretty much had their way from that point on.  Four Breds scored double figures, led by John Luhn with 15 points that included a trio of 3-pointers.  Jack Stevie, Gabe Waggoner (Four 3’s), and Thomas Messmer all put up 12 points apiece.

We will get a shootaround in the Middle School Saturday afternoon in preparation for our District date with Scott on Tuesday at 5:30pm.
