Indian Lake 45, Riverside 43

The Pirates dropped a thriller to neighboring Indian Lake in a nonconference game on Monday in Lewistown.

Lauryn Sanford hit a 3-pointer in the final 30 seconds to give the Pirates a lead but the Lakers answered with a 3 to secure the win.

Riverside led 6-3 at the end of the first quarter but Indian Lake used a 19-13 scoring edge in the second to take a 22-19 halftime lead. The Lakers led 32-25 going into the third quarter.

“Although we started out playing pretty rough, I’m proud of my girls’ effort in the second half,” Riverside coach Bryce Hodge said. “(After taking the lead) we almost had a steal but we let them get a jump ball out of it, which gave them possession under their basket.

“Out of that play, they hit a big-time 3 to take the lead. That’s why we always preach the little things. If we don’t give them the jump ball, they don’t get to run a baseline play and who knows what happens.”

Sanford led Riverside with 21 points while Amber Waters had 12 points and a team-high nine rebounds. Alli Knight scored eight points.

Riverside shot 17 for 39 (43.6 percent) from the floor and outrebounded the Lakers 22-13.

“It was a great atmosphere tonight and both teams played hard,” Hodge said. “Credit to Indian Lake for getting the tough win.”

The Pirates (9-10) will travel to Upper Scioto Valley on Thursday for a Northwest Central Conference game.

Other scores: Dayton Carroll 67, Minster 65 2OT.
