Maryville 86 Mo Bap 83 in ot
So much to tell about - obviously from the Maryville point of view - but first - this was just a great totally intense game for both teams - the officials established that anything goes around the basket, and the game was totally physical, but BOTH teams played clean - hard hits, but pick em up and no smart guy talk - it was the way two good guy teams should play.
Maryville won with terrific 3 point shooting from Mike Turpin (7 3 pointers) and Ben Hebl, the heart of a lion from Steve Bash -rebounds and hoops around the basket, an unbelievable effort from Tim Elwell aginst Mo Baps very strong point guard, and strong efforts from unsung frosh Aaron Steinke (looking like a real college player for the first time) and soph Ben Arand (experimental point guard).
Note no mention of Ryan Klein and Matt Regan, both of whom were saddled with fouls most of the game.
Mo Bap jumped out to an early lead, Maryville caught em, and Mo bap went back ahead by 5 at half. Maryville was up 5 by with a minute, but a 3 pointer by Mo bap, and out of control charge by MU, and 2 foulshots tied it with 30 seconds. MU didn't score and Mo Bap had the ball with 4 seconds left, but couldn't get a shot off. Huge 3 by Hebl, a fast break layup, a couple of crucial Fts by ? and it was an MU win. Nice crowd in a limited seating situation - great atmosphere.
