FREEVILLE – George Junior Republic outscored OV 26-6 in the third quarter hitting four three-pointers to hand the Vikes their first loss, and pick up the school’s first-ever win over the Vikings.
“They’ve (GJR) had some good teams over the years, but we’ve always managed to come out on top,” said Otselic Valley coach Dave Loomis. “Not tonight. They put together a very good game. I thought we got back into it in the second, and we were up two at halftime. I thought we had a good chance, but in the third quarter, we couldn’t do a thing.”
Dusty Davis had 13 points for OV and Mike Larkin 12. The Vikings play at Cincinnatus today.

Bainbridge-Guilford 46, Windsor 38
BAINBRIDGE – For the second time in three games, B-G needed to make a second-half comeback to keep their perfect record intact.
Shania Vandermark had four points to start the second half, and Randi Conway scored seven straight as part of an 11-2 run to erase a 20-13 halftime deficit.
“This game started out the same way as Unatego,” said B-G coach Bob Conway. “We couldn’t make a basket and we got in foul trouble...we came out in the second half, and we were just a different team.”
Conway hit a three ball to close the deficit to two, tied the game with a jumper, and adding a running jumper to make it 24-22. In the fourth, Chelsi Rosa hit a three ball to extend the lead to seven, and Conway went 6-for-7 from the foul line in the fourth to seal the win.
“This was a tough test for us because (Windsor) matches up well with us,” Conway said. “They’re physical inside and they get after you on defense.”
Vandermark led B-G (5-0) with 17 points and 13 rebounds. Conway added 16 points – 15 in the second half – to go with four steals and four assists. Rosa scored 11 points and pulled down six rebounds.
