Adam Mills hit four three pointers in a 7 minute
stretch early in the first half, scoring 14 of his game
high 17 in that time frame, and added an old-time three point play late in
the ballgame to help erase
a fourth quarter Wildcat lead as St. James defeated Trinity in a exciting
game in front of a more than
standing room only crowd, 44-38. Mills' second three pointer of the
game at the end of the first quarter
gave St. James a 4 point lead, and his next two came in the first forty seconds
of the second quarter.
He added a two point shot to give the Trojans an early 21-9 lead, but Trinity
cut the lead to 5 by halftime.
Bart Eddins' old-time three point play brought the Wildcats to within 1 at
the end of the third period,
and his two freethrows to begin the fourth period gave Trinity their only
lead of the game at 31-30.
A few minutes later the score was tied at 34, before Taylor Nelson hit a
turnaround shot and Mills'
late game three point play boosted the lead to five at 39-34, and the Wildcats
would get no closer than
three the rest of the way.

The Lady Trojan defense held the Lady Wildcats to 7 field goals in the game,
and got in gear offensively
in the second and third quarters as they doubled up the score on Trinity,
40-20. Paige Redden's early
three pointer gave Trinity a lead, but it would be the only points they would
score in the first quarter.
Karlin Beck's first basket tied the game at 5 in the second quarter, but
the Trojans scored 14 of the next
16 points to pull away, and didn't allow another field goal in the second
quarter. Elizabeth Richards led
the scoring with 14, including 3 three pointers, while Lauren Kloess added
8. Karlin Beck was the only
Lady Wildcat to score more than once in the game.
