Today the 7th grade boys A team faced off against the Amelia Barons.  The game started off slow, with a half-time score of 7 to 6, Amelia trailing.  Neither team could seem to get the edge.  both teams were playing aggressive defense, so the offenses were having trouble scoring.  At the end of the third quarter the score was still close.  During the 4th quarter the Knights gained the lead and held off the Barons with several key free throws.  the Knights defeated the Barons 23 to 17.

The Knights ran into a very good Walnut Hills Eagles team on Wednesday Night and picked up their first loss of the year 36-47.    The Knights won the tip and jumped out to a 4-0 lead on two Max Lerer field goals.  The Eagles came back to take a 15-10 first quarter lead.    The Eagles took a 11 point lead into the locker room 25-14 after a pretty good defensive quarter by both teams.      The Knights struggled out of the locker room in the second half allowing Walnut to take a quick 8-0 run to start the third quarter, but than Kings put up their own 8-2 run to close out the 3rd quarter 25-37.   The Knights owned the 4th quarter outplaying Walnut even before they substituted late in the game winning the final frame 11-10 and closing the game out 36-47.   

The boys gave an outstanding effort, battling back to a 9 point game in the 3rd quarter after falling behind by 19 early in the period and played even for the entire second half (22-22).    

Justin Crull led all scorers for the night with 16, mainly contributing offensively in the second half and Max Lerer delivered 10 points including the 4 points to start the game and put the Knights on top early.

The Knights jumped out to an 18-0 lead in the first quarter Monday night and never looked back.    Solid defense and over 70% shooting from the field in the first half put this game out of reach before half as the Knights took a 27-5 lead into the locker room.     Zach Mueller led all scorers with 10 points, Brent Mathias had a big 4th quarter and put up 8 points for game and everyone on the team contributed in a significant way in the 47-12 win.     The young Knights look to close out the first time through the conference with a win Wednesday night on the road at Walnut Hills.

In one of the final tune-ups before we focus on FAVC Cardinal division games, the Knights dominated the Ross Rams to run up a 3-0 record in non-division games.    

 A slow start spotted the Rams a 5-0 lead early in the first quarter, but the Knights cranked up the defense to create a couple quick turnover baskets to end the first quarter with a 7-5 lead.  

 The Knights had a balanced offensive attack, led in scoring by Max Lerer with 13.  

Monday starts the FAVC Cardinal Division play against Amelia and than a make up game on Thursday to close out non-division play at home vs. Winton Woods.

The 7th grade A Knights pulled out a strong win on the road against the Pleasant Run (Northwest) Knights winning 42-36.    The Knights took a 15 point lead into the half, but Northwest chipped away in the second half making it a 3 point game with under 2 minutes remaining.   The Knights showed poise in the final two minutes beating the press and hitting key free throws to seal a 6 point win.    The Knights were led by Justin Crull with 14 points and Max Lerer with 11.
