Game 2 - A Good Start

Dan Coleman made the most of his first start as Great Lakes Christian trounced Hershey, 90-51 in Game 2 (12/12-12/20). Coleman didn't start Game 1 for the Crusaders (he had 22 points as the O.T. player), but took advantage of the P.T. in Game 2, scoring 24 points and earning Player of the Week honors. Geary Claxton and DJ White added 21 apiece for GLC (2-0), which is averaging 85 points a game. Jamal Butler and Kosta Koufas finished with 16 each for the 1-1 Red Storm ... Superior Baptist U improved to 2-0 with a 70-45 win over Robert Montgomery U. SBU's Eric Gordon scored 26 in his Super 6 debut after missing the season opener with a tailbone injury. (Or was he waiting to start his career in front of RMU coach Mockler?) Gordon got help from Jordan Crawford and Drew Neitzel, who combined for 37 points to put the game away. Jason Okrzesik and Manny Harris scored 12 each to lead the 0-2 Knights ... DeShawn Sims scored a game-high 22 points and Spencer Tollackson tacked on 14 as Nelson Christian posted its first win, 60-32 over Oskee Wow-wow. The Doves won without Armon Bassett, who was suspended for violating team rules. OWW's Shaun Pruitt was the only player to score in double figures as the Warriors dropped to 0-2.
