O'HARA SCORES 102 POINTS

On February 6th, the O'Hara Celtics downed the Clinton Cardinals 102-44. In their previous meeting the score was 74-41 with Mark Braden putting in 27 points and TJ White accounting for 10 and Trevor Krasowsky hitting for 9. This time TJ White had 25 and Mark Braden had 23 with a balanced scoring from Dominique Fields, Trevor Krasowsky, DJ Jackson, Tyler Houser, and Aaron Stubblefield. Just beyond midway through the first quarter when O'Hara was up by five at 16-11, the Celtics ran up 20 unanswered points and the game became a runaway. Later in the game in the second half of the third period, the Cardinals were victims of another run of 17 unanswered points. Having reached 85 points within the first three quarters, O'Hara realized they could reach the century mark. But it would have to be done with the efforts of the bench (some of whom had just finished an 87-43 victory in the JV game) plus the handicap of a running clock due to the large point margin. And they came through with 17 points. The 100th point was reached on a basket by freshman Daniel Hurtt. Trevor Krasowski and Tyler Houser contributed several three-pointers. The final two points that went over the 100 mark were from free throws by Trevor Krasowsky and Larkin Garrison.
