Boys basketball: Findlay hosts Toledo Scott tonight
Diamond Mine Direct
Findlay High's boys basketball team, coming off a solid win over Bowling Green, will cap a three-game homestand today when the Trojans host Toledo Scott (0-3) in a non-league contest.

The Trojans (2-1) rebounded from last Friday's 57-51 Greater Buckeye Conference loss to Marion Harding by building an early lead and holding off Bowling Green, the preseason pick to win the Northern Lakes League, 69-63 Saturday. C.J. Gettys, a 6-foot-10 sophomore, had 20 points and 10 rebounds in the win. Justin Richter added 14 points and Brock Ammons 13 for the Trojans.

A year ago, Findlay got clutch free throws from Luke Kraus in the final seconds to escape with a 45-43 win over Scott. The Bulldogs graduated 10 players from that 7-14 team, but have 10 seniors on this year's roster and good size, including 6-5 senior wing Deshawn Lee, 6-8 senior center Austen Alabata, a move-in from Bryan, and 6-6 junior forward Mike Jones.

The Bulldogs are averaging 66 points a game, but are allowing 78.3 after losses to Youngstown Ursuline (66-53), Toledo Rogers (84-67) and West Carrolton (85-78).

Findlay returns to GBC action Friday when the Trojans travel to Fremont Ross.
