MOUNT
PULASKI — Friday
night in Mount Pulaski featured a battle between the little schools of
Logan County as the Hartsburg-Emden Stags came into town to face the
Toppers.
The Stags would draw first
blood with a 2-point bucket seconds into the game, but that was to
be their only lead of the night.
At half the Toppers led 18-11
and only got hotter in the third quarter, when they would extend the
lead to 39-20.
By the time the buzzer sounded,
Mount Pulaski had earned the 54-41 victory over the Stags, who were
playing without injured senior Richard Coit. Jordan Luczaj and Brady
Thomas led a very balanced Toppers attack with 13 and 12 points
respectively. Austin Leonard led the Stags with 12 points.
The Toppers improved to 5-12
on the season.
