[February 01, 2017]  The Hartem boys basketball team had no trouble defeating Decatur Christian Tuesday night after holding the Warriors scoreless in the first quarter.

 

 

The Stags put up 23 first quarter points for a 23-0 lead after one.

By the half the Warriors were pretty much already defeated, getting annihilated 41-5.

The third quarter performance by the Warriors was lackluster to say the least and Hartem took advantage and led 56-7 at the end of three quarters.

Coach Jason Garber had rested his starters in both the second and fourth quarters, so with that the bench continued to play solid and contributed heavily to the 69-21win.

The leading scorer for Hartem was Joe Garcia with 11 points. Alec Hayes tossed in 10 points for the Stags. Every Hartem player in the scorebook scored except for Brody Baker, who is still out with an ankle injury.

Hartem is now 14-9 on the season.

The Stags will travel to Glasford Friday night to take on a very talented Illini Bluffs team.
