Bryan Walters |OVP Sports Ohio Valley Christian sophomore Conner Walter (34) releases a shot attempt during the second half of Tuesday night’s boys basketball contest against Hannan in Gallipolis, Ohio. GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — That ﬁrst halftime speech must have been something special. The Hannan boys basketball team overcame a 2-possession deﬁcit with an 11-0 run to start the second half, ultimately allowing ﬁrst-year coach John Polcyn to win his varsity debut Tuesday night following a 45-36 decision over host Ohio Valley Christian in a non-conference contest in the Old French City. The visiting Wildcats (1-0) never led by more than two points during the ﬁrst half, with both advantages coming in the ﬁrst quarter of play. The Defenders (4-7), however, closed the ﬁnal 61 seconds of the opener with a 4-1 run that gave the hosts an 11-9 edge through eight minutes of play. OVCS kept that momentum going throughout the second period as the Blue and Gold rallied from a pair of ties to build 4-point leads, the last of which came at 20-16 entering the break. HHS came out of the intermission by hitting ﬁve of its ﬁrst six shot attempts during an 11-0 charge that turned the halftime deﬁcit into a 27-20 lead with 5:22 remaining in the canto. The Defenders answered with ﬁve consecutive points and closed the gap down to 27-25 with 3:06 left, but the hosts were never closer as the Blue and White ended the ﬁnal 2:54 Photos by Alex Hawley | OVP Sports Southern senior Cole Steele drives past a Point Pleasant defender, during the Tornadoes’ 68-59 overtime victory on Tuesday in Racine, Ohio.

After 32 minutes were played in Tuesday’s non-conference boys basketball game in Meigs County, Southern and Point Pleasant were tied at 56, and the host Tornadoes went on a 12-to-3 run in the extra session for a 68-59 victory. Southern (2-3) never trailed in the ﬁrst half, scoring the ﬁrst ﬁve points of the night and holding Point Pleasant (0-1) off the board for the opening 4:45. The Tornadoes led 10-3 by the end of the ﬁrst quarter, and stretched their lead to as any as 13 points, at 18-5, with 4:45 left in the half. The Big Blacks got back to within four points, at 20-16, but SHS pushed its advantage to 25-19 by halftime. PPHS started the second half with an 11-to-4 spurt, and took its ﬁrst lead of the game at 30-29 with 4:40 left in the third quarter. There were three more lead changes in the period and the Purple and Gold took a 44-38 edge into the fourth.

Following the overtime victory, SHS head coach Jeff Caldwell commended his team for ﬁnishing off the victory after a hardfought effort from PPHS to come back. “I’m just really proud of them,” Caldwell said. “Point Pleasant made that run at the end of the fourth quarter, a couple things went against us, and hat’s off to Point Pleasant for never quitting and making that run. Then at the end of regulation going into overtime I said ‘new ballgame, let’s go out and play four minutes aggressively, and do what we did to get that lead,’ and the kids went out and really played a good fourminute overtime.” For Point Pleasant, head coach Josh Williams was proud of his team’s will to ﬁght back, but acknowledged the areas that his offense needs to work on. “I thought our grit and our toughness was good, the kids never quit,” Williams said. “You get in that situation and battle back to get a second chance. I just think offensively we weren’t in sync together, we took a lot of contested shots that weren’t necessary and didn’t get to the paint enough. I thought we settled a lot, and they’re defense had a little bit to do with that.” Williams also credited the Tornadoes for their start, and hopes that his club can learn from this season-opening setback. “Hat’s off to Southern, I credit them for being ready to play tonight,” Williams said. “I think the ﬁrst half was a microcosm of just getting those jitters out, being so amped and not having those reps under us. Like I told the kids, the season’s early, it’s just one game, the biggest challenge will be what we do from here. We’ll look at it in a ﬁlm session, and grow from it. We have tomorrow off and then we’re right back at it for our next game, so you have to have that next play mentality.” For the game, Southern outrebounded the Big Blacks by a 42-to-24 count, including 16-to8 on the offensive end. PPHS won the turnover battle by a 24-to-14 clip, and ﬁnished with 14 steals, eight assists, and two rejections, while SHS had 17 assists, 10 steals and three blocked shots. Caldwell pointed to the Southern’s rebounding as a pivotal statistic for the season, and also noted that the different defenses his club has faced will help once the full Tri-Valley Conference See TORNADOES | 7 �SPORTS Daily Sentinel Lady Cats double up OVCS, 52-26 Cats sive glass.
