Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Hearne walked away with it. They breezed past the Flatonia Bulldogs to the tune of 78-46 on Thursday. The Eagles have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won 16 contests by 21 points or more this season.
Dereion Mitchell was his usual excellent self, dropping a double-double with 18 points and 12 boards. The dominant performance also gave him a new career-high in field goal percentage (82%). Zayden Mercer was another key player, dropping a double-double with ten points and ten rebounds.
Hearne smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 31 offensive boards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least 12 offensive rebounds in four consecutive games.
Hearne is on a roll lately: they've won 11 of their last 12 matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 26-5 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 67.6 points over those games. Flatonia's loss dropped their record down to 18-14.
As of now, neither Hearne nor Flatonia have any future games scheduled.
