The Knights enjoyed a 21-9 scoring advantage in the third quarter, with Hammons draining a pair of treys and Heckler adding three baskets.\u00a0Perrott added a triple and a free throw. Hammons went on to finish with a game high 16 points, Heckler and Sheets had 14 points and Perrott reached double figures with 12 points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI thought we played well in spurts tonight,\u201d Crestview head coach Doug Etzler said. \u201cWe struggled to put together four really good quarters on the defensive end. Give credit to Delphos Jefferson because they made us pay when we didn\u2019t play sound at the defensive end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jefferson\u2019s Kellen Brotherwood scored all eight of his points in the fourth quarter, and the Wildcats outscored the hosts 16-12 in the period.  Howell led Delphos Jefferson with 13 points and Kellen Carder added 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While pleased with the win, Etzler noted the Knights have work to do in the remaining six regular season games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAt this point in the season you are always happy to get a win but our guys realize we need to clean a few things up if we want to reach our goals,\u201d Etzler stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The Knights are scheduled to play at Celina today, starting with the junior varsity contest at 4:45 p.m. Delphos Jefferson is scheduled to host Ayersville, with the junior varsity game starting at 4 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
