SUMMERFIELD HIGH SCHOOL: 46

The Redskins traveled to Summerfield last night for TCC game against the second-place Bulldogs. The visitors came away with a hard-fought win, 48-46. Clark Nelson hit the go-ahead shot with 13 seconds left in the game.

"That was a great win tonight. Summerfield is a tough place to win, and with us getting down early, we had to really fight to come back. We talked about being mentally tough in the pre-game, and we definitely showed some of that tonight." Coach Jordan Kelly said.

Clinton found themselves down 16-4 after the first quarter, but closed the gap to 24-22 going into the half. The second half was back and forth the whole way, until Nelson put the Redskins ahead for the final time.

"We really buckled down and started doing the things we needed to do. We took much better care of the ball the last 3 quarters, played much better defensively, and knocked some shots down." Coach Kelly added.

Clinton held Summerfield's two leader scorers Breeding (21ppg) and DaFoe (16ppg) to 5 and 8 points, respectively. 

Leading the way for Clinton was Mitchell Drabicki, providing a spark off the bench, with 12 points. Nelson had 11 points, Justin Felts and Steven Fortney each added 10 points.

Robbie Campbell and Clay Langer were credited with strong defensive games, while Collin Stapnowski played well at the point guard position off the bench. 

The Redskins will host Morenci on Friday for Homecoming.

Overall record: 5-7 (TCC 4-4)
