GREENVILLE, Ohio — Michael Bashore won a bunch of games as coach of the Green Wave.

Payton Jutte made sure his first trip back as a visiting coach resulted as a win too.

Jutte scored a career-high 37 points Saturday, leading the Fort Recovery High School boys basketball team to a 79-72 win over the Greenville Green Wave.

The junior joins Bill Fiely, Tom Bryan and Dave Williams in scoring exactly 37 points in a single game. Only 10 players have scored more than 37 points in FRHS history. Bryan holds the school record with 55 points set in 1966.
