Final from the Greenhouse.

Greenup improves to 13-8 on the season, while Russell falls to 5-17. The Musketeers had five players in double figures, led by Gage Hughes with 21. Jherrell Jackson had 16, Christian Wireman had 14, and Michael Hubbert and Austin Grooms each had 12.

 

Russell was led in scoring by Ethan Raby, who had a game high 23. Bobby Hale added 13.

Yes the score was bad, but Russell played very hard the hole game. Played the end just as hard as start, I think that is worth mentioning cause most would have gave up. Greenup was just on fire, Gage Hughes was 6-6 from 3, 6-9 total from field, only missing 3 shots, and 1 was at buzzer 3-5 from line for 21pts 5 reb and 6 ast . Russell did a nice job of defending him in 2nd half. Only problem was Christen Wireman had 4 ,3s also (4-5 or 4-6) Jherrell Jackson`s 16 is about 10 over his avg. Mike Hubbert and Austin Grooms each had around 12 or so, and (guessing) both had double -double games. When Greenup score`s like they did tonight , and Mason game , plus others . They are very hard to beat, and there`s not a team in 16th that they cant beat , when they play like they can. Just needs to be more often , and the man- to man "D" is getting better. First time in 3 years man has been the main "D" for GC. Still more than a few games left , to work on it. Any night Hughes and Wireman are hot at 3, and Hubbert and Grooms drive and score in paint, Greenup is tuff to beat. Again Great job Russell for not giving up. Something to be proud of, says a lot about coach and players.
