MT. MORRIS JR/SR HIGH SCHOOL: 43
Coach Simons issued the boys a challenge in the locker room prior to the 2nd league matchup with Mount Morris today. After having lost the first match up 64-47 on December 11, Coach Simons said "hold them to 50 or below and we have a chance to beat them" The boys rose up to the challenge and held Mount Morris to only 13 points in the first half and a total of 43. Once again, Kollin Lienau exemplified being a true "clutch" team member by tying the game late in the 4th quarter and again with only 4 seconds remaining, came off of a screen, drove in and scored a layup and drew a foul. Making the extra point with 2.2 seconds did not leave any room for error offensively on Mount Morris and New Lothrop walked away with their 13th win of the season.
