Round 1 to TC 30-27

Short report this evening. 

In a defensive struggle, Toledo Christian outlasted MV 30-27 tonight at the Varsity Gym.  The Hawks had two chances to go ahead or tie the game at the end.  Rick Deichert made a three-quarter court 3 pointer with seven seconds to go and another three ball at the buzzer, but he released both shots just after the whistle (verified after watching the video) and neither shot counted.

In the second quarter, MV held the Eagles to two points; TC returned the favor in the third, blanking the Blue and White until a three pointer by Julius Turner with four seconds left.

Maumee Valley went 6-17 from the free throw line.  Yikes.

And now for the unhappy totals.  Rick Deichert and Julius Turner scored 8 apiece for the Hawks; Jared Sturt had 7, Dixon Stoddard and Dave Brown added two points each for the home team.  David Westmeyer (13) and Nick Rightnowar (10) scored 23 of TC's 30 points.
