On Saturday, Dec. 12th we participated in the Ronald McDonald Charity Classic held annually at Oldham County High School. We played North Oldham in a very high scoring affair and we came away with the win 97-87 in overtime.
In a game we needed to win very badly, we shot outstanding, hitting 11-25 from the 3 point line and 32-40 from the free throw line. In this game we had several outstanding individual performances with 4 double-doubles. Hunter Gary and Tyler Saltsman posted career highs by scoring 32 points a piece. They both had 11 rebounds to go with their points. Aaron Deviney scored 10 points and pulled down 10 rebounds. Aaron also scored the tying bucket on a great move to send the game into overtime. Travis Johnston was the 4th player with a double-double as he scored 13 points and dished out 10 assists. Travis also fouled out with 2:30 to play in regulation with us leading by 5. Our guys lost the lead after that but showed tremendous mental toughness to win going away in overtime without Travis.
Two other players were tremendous for us as well. Brady Clemons keeps getting better every game as he scored 7 points, all in the 4th quarter and OT. He also held North Oldham's best player scoreless in the overtime period. Dylan Vaught also performed very well coming off the bench as he played every minute after Travis fouled out. He contributed 3 points but had a big assist to Aaron Deviney on a basket and took very good care of the ball.
Hunter Gary and Tyler Saltsman were chosen as Co-Players of the Game by K105. Tyler was 6-8 from the 3 point line and Hunter went 18-22 from the free throw line. Both players collected 11 rebounds.
