Class 2 Sectional Gainesville 66 Hartville 50

[HerrSchwartz]

Strange game to watch. Hartville was heavily favored but they couldn't stop any penetration and didn't shoot well from the field and especially the line.

Gainesville couldn't handle the ball under pressure but made a few shots and nearly all their free throws.

Hartville never led. They opened the 4th with a 6-0 run to cut it to 2 and only scored 7 over the last 7 minutes.

Here is a pretty good game recap. If Hartville was "heavily" favored, I guess they forgot to tell Gainesville. Many of the turnovers were unforced and I think Hartville scored only 8 points off turnovers. That is normally a big part of their game, so defense played a big key for the Bulldogs. As stated Gainesville led wire to wire and showed their experience down the stretch.
