When face-to-face defense doesn't work...In a game marred by poor shooting, turnovers, and lapses in scoring, Marion Local somehow found enough for a not-so-pretty Tuesday win over Russia.
Russia played Saturday like a team that's good enough to play as well as they need on a given night against any given opponent, gaining their 18th win, 60-42, over Versailles. Different from last year's state semi-finalists, they're still working to see how much more they can be.
Delphos St. John's buried 16 3-pointers against Versailles' typically staunch defense to claim an 81-48 runaway victory. Cam Elwer led the charge (above), cashing in 7 of 10 3-point attempts, and scoring 31 points.
