After the Hall-of-Fame induction the Patriots scored in transition and in the half court racing to a 1st quarter lead of 22-11 and 38-15 at the half.
Tri-Village shared the ball well with 7 guys scoring in the half. Layne Sarver had 10 points, Wilson Suggs and Josh Scantland 8 points and Justin Finkbine 5 at the half for TV.
Arcanum came in the game down two senior guards Ian Baker and Jake Goubeaux and it didn’t take long to see the effects as Tri-Village length and athleticism made it difficult for the Trojans to get into an offensive flow. TV would end the game with 18 steals.
The lone bright spot for Arcanum was the play of 6’5” junior forward Nick Sharrits who was a perfect 7-7 from the field and 6-9 from the free throw line. He scored a game high 20 points to lead all scorers.
Tri-Village Dalton Delong had a big 2nd half with 4 triples scoring 16 points in the contest.
Layne Sarver had two big slams in the game and 16 points, Josh Scantland had a two-handed dunk and 11 points and Wilson Suggs added 11 points as well.
The Patriots would have no trouble going on to win the game 78-32 to improve their record to 5-1 overall and 3-0 in the conference. They are back in action on Tuesday where they will travel to south to play in the Ironton Basketball Classic. They will play DIII Fairland (Proctorville) who is 6-1 on the year.
Arcanum falls to 3-2 overall and 1-1 in the conference. They will play Tuesday night hosting Mississinawa in a Western Ohio Athletic Conference game.
