BBB 2015-12-21 vs Mariner

Clinging to a 55-52 lead over visiting Mariner Monday, the Oak Harbor High School boys' basketball squad was 1:42 away from its first win of the season.

Then things fell apart in a way rarely witnessed.

Unable to get a single shot off the rest of the way, crippled by turnovers and an inability to stop the Marauders on the offensive boards, the 'Cats slumped to an eventual 61-55 loss.

The defeat left Oak Harbor sitting at 0-7 heading into the Bulldog Holiday Classic in Mount Vernon next week.

Up until the end, the Wildcats had stretches of inspired ball against Mariner, taking an early advantage at 6-2, then storming back in the second half to reclaim the lead.

Down 24-14 at the half, Oak Harbor threw down 23 points in a torrid third-quarter run.

The two teams swapped the lead several times in the fourth, before Mariner free throws (the Marauders hit 10 of 12 in the final quarter) and Oak Harbor's inability to shoot at the end doomed the 'Cats.

Dyllan Harris paced Oak Harbor with a team-high 19, dropping in 16 of those in the second-half rally.

Adam Nelson added eight, Savion Passmore and Josh Cote each went for seven, while Preston Rankin (4), Sean Erskine (4), Diangelo McKinney (3), Ozell Jackson (2) and Taeson Hardin (1) rounded out the 'Cat scorers.

JV goes wire-to-wire:

Slow and steady wins the game.

Oak Harbor's second-string squad never had any huge runs, but they didn't need them, steadily adding to its lead in every quarter.

A 15-12 lead after one became a five-point margin by the half, six after three and ten by the end, as the Wildcats bounced Mariner 64-54.

Gabe Salinger captured the spotlight with a game-high 20, while Joseph Arinaza and TJ Passmore each chipped in with 10 of their own.

Marcus Carr (9), Gavin Allen (4), Justin Ellison (4), Haven Brown (4) and Jordan Bell (3) also penciled their names into the score-book.

C-Team grabs blowout win:

Dorian Hardin tossed in 17, including three treys, and the young 'Cats romped to a 56-42 win.

Oak Harbor put the game away early, ripping off a 16-7 run in the first before stretching the halftime margin to a solid 14-point spread.

Terell Crumpton dropped nine to back Hardin, while Kevin Schuldt (8), Andrew Balloy (8), Kanoa King (6), Trevor Mondor (3), Austin Boesch (3) and Evan Nadeau (2) also scored.
