the first quarter, and 10 in the first half as the Irish fell behind 27-10 at halftime. The Irish managed a little more offense in the second half, but not
nearly enough as the Irish two game winning streak ended.

with 2 each, and JR Bernans with 1.
The Irish JV team went on a 10-0 run spanning the end of the 3d and start of the 4th quarter to complete a strong comeback enroute to a 45-40 victory and
avenge an early season loss to Westerville South. The Irish started slow, falling behind 17-6 after one quarter, but slowly crept there way back into
the game and took a 37-32 lead after the 10-0 run, before hanging on for the win. Patrick Rooney had three 2d half assists, all to Ryan Gibson, who scored
12 second half points to help spark the comeback.
Overall Gibson was leading scorer with 15, followed by Travis Yates with 11 including 4 in the fourth quarter, Joshua Ashwill with 7, Patrick Rooney with 4,
Jalen Johnson and Austin Mooney with 3 each, and Ryan Duncan with 2.
The story of the game for the Freshmen was cold shooting, as there appeared to be a lid on the basket as nothing seemed to fall. The freshmen managed only
2 points in the first quarter, and only 19 for the game as they fell to South by the final score of 37-19.
