Defense leads Indians to win
By Gary R. Rasberry
FORT RECOVERY - After a strong offensive first half that saw his team holding a 33-31 lead on St. Marys, Fort Recovery girls basketball coach Brian Patch knew his team needed to increase the defensive intensity in the second half.
The Indians responded by holding the Roughriders to three points over the span of 12 1/2 minutes in the second half and improved to 14-2 with a 60-43 win in Saturday matinee action at Fort Site Fieldhouse. [More]
