TDC Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Titans come out on fire, hit six three-pointers in the 1st Quarter and never look back. Mercer finishes 11-21 from the three-point line, Boyle 4-21. Carter Baughman with 22 points for the Titans, Kaelin Drakeford with 13 points and 11 rebounds. Grant Hotchkiss leads Boyle with 23, Reese Smith adds 16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Statsdontlie Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Mercer County did whatever they wanted to tonight. Baughman, Lewis, and Drakeford got to the rim anytime they wanted. This is probably the worst I ever saw Boyle County play defense. Also, Boyle has no size and ir kills them on rebounding. Seemed like Drakeford pulled down every rebound that came off. Great win for Mercer, they seem to be playing great basketball at the right time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurplePride92 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Great win for Mercer County. Definitely one of their best games played of the season. They looked really good tonight. The Titans retired Trevon Faulkner’s jersey tonight and honored him at halftime. Easily the best player in Mercer County history. Congrats to Trevon!!!!!

titan101 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Mercer has some guys capable of shooting the ball well from outside they just have not shot great this season for various reasons. Tatum missed all last season with an injury, Isaiah Smith is playing his first year of high school basketball with Mercer, Drakeford had a high ankle sprain missing several games to start the season just starting to get healthy. Lewis had surgery on his ankle during football season and is still not 100% healthy. Luke Dean is getting significant minutes for the 1st time in his varsity career. Mercer can be a dangerous team when they share the ball and hit open shots like this. Would love nothing more than them to go into the region tourney still ranked as the 6th best team in the region.
