| Abingdon notches first tournament win since 2004 |
| A
10-0 run in the final seconds of the first
quarter and into the second quarter propelled the
Commandos to a 42-25 win in opening round action
of the Macomb-Western Holiday Tournament over the
Saukees of Pittsfield. Corey Gruber was seemingly unstoppable for Abingdon (8-1) as he finished the day with 22 points and 7 rebounds. Gruber was 9-of-17 from the floor on the day. The Commando defense shut down the Pittsfield (7-4) attack allowing only 28 percent field goal shooting. The Saukees were led by Nick Grote and Trevor Miller who scored seven apiece. Pittsfield's Kyle Harris led all rebounders with 8. Pittsfield will
play next at 10:30 a.m. tomorrow against the
loser of Farmington and Carthage. Abingdon
advances to the winners' bracket where they will
take on the winner of the Farmington/Carthage
game. |
