Amber Fendley, Perry's senior
wing player, hit a game higher 18
points to pace ‘the Perry team to its
second win of the young season.

leading by just three at the half, 28-
25.

BcHdogs, who still have players
involved in football. Stan Gann

shooting, canning four three
pointers and 20 points overall to

lb lead at the half as Carl Thomas
faced one-time student Clint

Bulldog scorer with 19 with Kevin
Jackson hitting 15. The Buldogs,

Westfield Hornets topple
top-ranked Tattnall, 67-58
Despite going into the game
with a 1-2 record, the Westfield
Hornets were ranked fifth in the
GISA coaches poll as they met top
ranked Tattnall Friday night at
Tattnall. The two losses came
while eleven of the Hornets were
still playing football.
Talk about using your bench
early! With Tallnall leading 9-7,
Lance Bryant scored back to back
baskets to give Westfield an 11-9
lead, and after a Matt Shepley
basket made it 13-11, Ben Hulbert
hit a buzzer-beaer for two to end
the quarter with Westfield on top
15-11.
The boys must have been
watching the girls game, because,
like the Lady Hornets, the Hornets
went cold in the second quarter and
Tattnall sued the lapse to take a 30-
25 halftime lead. Westfield got just
three points in the quarter from
starters as Hulbert, Bryant and
Travis Baird accounted for most of
the points in the period.
Westfield's Brian Nash took
charge of the game in the third
quarter, scoring eight straight
Westfield points as the Hornets
crept back into the game. Then
with 41 seconds left in the third,
Jake Walls hit two free throws then
a two pointer to take the lead before
Ronnie Hilderbrand hit a long three
pointer to give Tattnall the lead

back at the end of three 44-43. But
die fourth quarter belonged to
Westfield as the Hornets used their
diree guard offense effectively over
die slower Trojans. With just under
seven minutes left in die game,
Todd Rigdon got a Westfield basket
to give his team the lead at 47-46,
dien a Walls diree-pointer made ti
50-46.
The game stayed that way until
the Hornets got the ball on a Gregy
Taylor travel with 1:57 left. And
no, I've never seen so many
traveling calls as the officials made
in diis tame. With Tattnall pressing
and fouling, the Hornets then
cashed in at the foul line as Matt
Shepley, Ben Hulbert and Jake
Walls converted nine of ten over die
final 52 seconds of the game.
Coach Jim Massey said "diat’s what
we need to win. Key baskets and
free throws."
Walls led four Hornets in double
figures, with 17 points. Shepley
had 12. while Hulbert and Nash had
ten each. Westfield also got key
baskets by Latwon Pearson and
Lance Bryant. Greg Taylor was die
only Trojan in double figures,
scoring 13 points but experiencing
a terible shooting night, going oh
for-eleven on outside shooting. And
by the way, this game was a lot
closer than the final score of 67-58
might suggest.
