Around the Super 6 through Game 1 -- (12/8 - 12/10/07) ... Superior Baptist's quest for a second straight title got off to a good start, with a 51-38 win over Nelson Christian in the Super 6 season opener. Jordan Crawford had 20 points and Drew Neitzel added 15 to lift the Crusaders to victory. SBU won without star guard Eric Gordon, who was sidelined with a back injury. Spencer Tollackson (16 points) and DeShawn Sims (12) were the only UNC starters in double figures ... Great Lakes Christian put up the biggest numbers of the week, cruising past Robert Montgomery U, 80-61. Geary Claxton tossed in 21 points to pace the Crusaders attack. Brian Butch scored 17 to lead the Knights, who also got solid performances from new starters E'Twaun Moore and Jason Okrzesik ... Trent Meachem scored 16 points and Jamar Butler added 13 as Hershey beat Oskee Wow-wow, 50-43. Meachem came thisclose to riding the bench for the Red Storm, but the game day decision to put him in the lineup (instead of Brian Randle) paid off. OWW's Shaun Pruitt finished with a league-high 24 points, but his Illini teammates, Rodney Alexander and Demetri McCamey, only scored two points combined.
