ALBANY, Ohio (WOUB) — Coming into this game the Alexander Spartans poised an overall 7-8 record. On the other hand, the Wellston Golden Rockets had an over .500 record of 6-5 with 2-2 in the TVC Conference.
The dynamic duo of Kyler D’Augustino and Braydin McKee led the way in the close victory. D’Augustino finished with eleven field goals and eight rebounds. McKee dropped six field goals and snatched down five boards.
The crazy part is the Spartans never held a lead until the 4th quarter hit.
A combined late-game turnover and fouling led to D’Augustino clutch free throws with ice in his veins.
In the end, Alexander was able to pull away with a score of 64-58.
Alexander will look to carry on their two-game winning streak facing Nelsonville-York Tuesday at 7:30 pm.
