POTTERS FALL TO OAK GLEN

EAST LIVERPOOL, OH- There were several left stunned in their padded blue seats on Tuesday evening.  Buckeye 8 Champion, and local powerhouse, East Liverpool gave up an 8-point lead over rival Oak Glen in the final stanza and eventually fell 65-60 on their home floor.

While Oak Glen is far from a pushover on the schedule, the Big Blue Nation has come to have some high expectations for this year’s Potter team.  East Liverpool had issues with turnovers down the stretch that gave the opportunity to Oak Glen, and those chances were cashed in for a signature win.

Timmy Neal led the Potters with 14 points, while Tresean Jackson was held below his average at 13 points.  Also filling out the scoring sheet for EL was Brennan O’Hara who finished with 10.

Oak Glen’s Zach Taylor scored a game-high 22 which consisted of 5 splashes from beyond the arc.  Gage Patterson chipped in 18 to help the Golden Bears pull the upset.
