The Jellico Blue Devils's game last Thursday was a tough loss, but they didn't let that memory haunt them on Monday. They secured a 65-59 W over University. Having run the score up that high, both teams might be doing some extra defensive drills very soon.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Jellico to victory, but perhaps none more so than Carson Bolton, who almost dropped a double-double on 25 points and nine steals. That makes it three consecutive games in which Bolton has scored at least a third of Jellico's points. Another player making a difference was John Zecchini, who dropped a double-double on 15 points and 14 rebounds.
Jellico is on a roll lately: they've won nine of their last 11 matches, which provided a nice bump to their 20-11 record this season. As for University, their defeat ended a six-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 20-9.
Jellico's road trip will continue as they head out to face Hughes at 8:45 p.m. on March 13th. Jellico knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with flashy point totals in its past 27 matches -- so hopefully Hughes likes a good challenge. University does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
