’Skins freeze out the Indians (01/21/06)
FRHS boys basketball
FORT RECOVERY — It may have felt relatively balmy outdoors, but things couldn’t have gotten much colder inside Fort Site Fieldhouse Friday night — at least as far as the field goal shooting by the Indians was concerned.
Winless at home for the season, Fort Recovery fell to the visiting St. Henry Redskins 63-48.
But it’s not the final score that tells the tale. It’s the shooting percentage.
Fort Recovery only hit 32 percent of its shots from the field and just 32 percent of its 3-point attempts. Meanwhile, the visitors brought their own heat to the gathering, hitting 65 percent from the field, including 7-of-11 (64 percent) of their 3-pointers.
It didn’t start out that way.
The Indians (3-7, 0-4 Midwest Athletic Conference) jumped out to a 15-8 lead in the first quarter, with Clint Tobe and Travis VanSkyock on target. But as St. Henry’s defense adjusted the Indians started throwing up bricks.
Outscored 15-4 in the second quarter, the Indians went to the locker room shaken but still in the game trailing 23-19.
The wheels fell off entirely in the third quarter as the Redskins went on a 23-7 run, leaving the Indians in the dust. Fort Recovery tried to battle back in the fourth and outscored St. Henry 22-17 in the final period, but by then the hole was way to deep to climb out of.
Tobe led the Indians with 16, and VanSkyock followed with 15.
St. Henry (10-1, 3-1 MAC) benefited from a more balanced scoring attack, with three players in double digits, led by Ryan Ranly’s 17. And the visitors held a huge advantage in the rebound department, 35-20, with Kurt Huelsman grabbing 10 and Ranly 8.

Fort Recovery gave away a halftime lead as it fell 44-35 to the Redskins.
The JV Indians led 21-15 at the half before the offense went stagnant after the break. After shooting 50 percent in the opening eight minutes, Fort Recovery hit just 5-of-25 field-goal attempts (20 percent) in the second half.
St. Henry countered by turning around its poor first-half shooting (36 percent) as it went 9-of-14 (64 percent) to outscore the Indians 29-14 after the intermission.
Brad Prenger paced the Redskins with 14 points, and Corey Puthoff had eight.
Aaron Kahlig dominated the scoring column for Fort Recovery, finishing with 20 points. He hit four 3-pointers in the defeat.[[In-content Ad]]
