Marion's win was the result of several impressive offensive performances. One of the most notable came from Kobe Johnson, who posted 11 points in addition to five assists and three steals.

Another player making a difference was Logan Barnes, who went 7-for-15 to rack up 17 points and seven boards.
Marion smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 14 offensive rebounds. That's the most offensive boards they've posted since back in December of 2024.
Marion has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four contests. That's provided a massive bump to their 12-11 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 74.0 points over those games. Bellmont's loss dropped their record down to 5-18.
Coming up, Marion will face off against Heritage at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Marion has given up an average of 67.2 points per game this season, so hopefully the team got some defensive drills in this week. Bellmont does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
