The four-time defending Mid-Buckeye Conference champion St. Peter’s Spartans continued their league dominance by protecting home court against visiting Crestline, routing the Bulldogs 53-35.

 

St Peter’s led from start to finish, going on top in the opening seconds and never looked back, as the squad built an 11-7 first quarter cushion that extended to 29-12 by the half with an 18-4 run to end the second quarter. Crestline outscored the Spartans 13-11 in the third and would trim the deficit to 12 early in the final frame, but St Peter’s balanced attack would cement a home court win.

 

Four Spartans finished in double-figures scoring with Shawn Perkins-Harris netting a game-best 14 points while Caleb Stewart added 13 and both Luke Henich and Jonah Ramey scored a dozen. Max Anatra paced the Bulldogs scoring attack with 13 followed by Kaden Ronk with seven and Trevor Phillips scoring five points.

 

St Peter’s remains unbeaten in MBC play at 3-0, improving to 4-2 overall. The loss dips Crestline to 1-5, and 0-3 in league games.
