“We played together as a team really well,” said Arcanum JV coach Dave Baker. “The press worked well, we shot as well as we needed to. Overall I was very pleased.”

The Trojans bolted out to a 12-2 lead after one period of play led by Jaxson Christ’s 4-points, a 3-pointer each from Ashton Etherington and Garrett Garno and a Nick Sharritts 2-point basket.

Arcanum pushed its lead to 27-11 after two quarters of play sending the teams to the break outscoring the Blue Devils 15-9 in the second led by Etherington’s 6-points coming by way of two treys and Garno’s 5-points.
