CONVOY — It was a milestone night for Crestview head coach Doug Etzler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His Knights earned a 58-47 Northwest Conference win over visiting Delphos Jefferson, giving Etzler his 200th career victory. The 1991 Crestview High School graduate led Teays Valley for 14 seasons before returning home in 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s special being able to get my 200th win at Crestview,\u201d Etzler said. \u201cI have been blessed with great assistant coaches, administration, players and support from my family.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As far as the game, the Knights (9-4, 4-1 NWC) found themselves down 14-12 after the first quarter, with Colin Bailey scoring eight points in the period, while Carson Hunter countered with five. Gavin Etzler drilled a pair of treys in the second quarter and Mitch Temple added four points to help Crestview to a 29-25 halftime advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hunter added six more in the third quarter, including four from the foul line and Nate Lichtle drained one of his three triples to help the Knights to a 42-36 advantage entering the final period. Crestview converted 7-of-9 free throws in the fourth quarter to help secure the win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hunter led Crestview with 13 points, Wren Sheets tallied 12, Etzler added 11 and Temple finished with 10. In addition, Lichtle finished with nine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI thought we did a good job of sharing the basketball and getting everyone involved offensively,\u201d Etzler said. \u201cWe had a good mix of three point shots, inside scores and getting to the free throw line.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Bailey led all scorers with 14, Trent Teman finished with 13, including eight in the final quarter, and Levi Rode added 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDelphos was a tough matchup for us defensively,\u201d Etzler said. \u201cThey all can handle it and shoot it but for the most part I thought we were pretty solid defensively.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both teams are in action tonight, with Delphos Jefferson (4-10, 1-3 NWC) hosting Ayersville and Crestview traveling to Celina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
