Chesapeake – “The first section is the deepest. Honey, I know, the first section is the deepest.

Because when it comes to luck, we are cursed.

As for the good beginnings, we are the oldest.

When it comes to the first quarter, the first of Chesi.

I know so

The first incision is the deepest. “

With excuses for Cat Stevens and his song “The First Current is the Deepest,” Ironton Fighting Tigers continue to understand that the first quarter – and ultimately the game belongs to Chesapeake Panthers.

At a similar launch of Persin Court, the Panthers jumped to a big lead in the first quarter and withstand the return of Ironon and managed to beat a 67-61 conference on the Ohio Valley on Tuesday.

Chesapike continued with 11-3 to start the game and finished the first quarter with an 18-9 lead before Ironon returned to take the lead in two different cases before the Panthers were able to withdraw at the last minute of the game.

“We have won them four of the last six times we played, and the two we lost were here and our first quarters were terrible,” said Ironon coach Chris Barnes.

“It is more difficult to dig from a hole here. For our boys, we took the lead, and it was generally half of our team in major unpleasant problems and (foul) appearance made us difficult for us. We hit 10 straight throws until the last three or four free throws. “

Chesapeake is already 17-1 for the season, but more important is 11-0 in OVC and heads first in 12-0 Fairland on Friday. The last three games in the Panther League have been in Fairland, in Ironon and Home with Fairland.

3 points from Caden Perkins and laying on Carson Freka placed the Panthers 23-9 to start the second quarter.

Then Ironton began his return when Brade Shrek struck a 3-pointer to make 32-28. Perkins sank two free throws shortly before half and was 36-30.

Shrek – who had 17 points in the first half – was forced to the bench in the third quarter after lifting his fourth foul.

“We gave them a bucket to an incoming game that gave them a lead. We went down and missed a few 3s. This game came down to about two plays after making the return. We had chances. Give them credit. They had to win at home. They made some plays, “said coach Barnes.

Frecka scored inside, and Maddox Kazee turned the staff into a sort of 40-30 leads at the beginning of the third quarter.

But Ashton Lane scored 8 points, and Juda Barnes hit a pair of 3-telling Halfcourt, as the Zumer finished the third quarter-Ironon fights back to take a 51-50 lead.

“Juda played a great game today. His statistics were fantastic. Lane and Markel played great. We played a great defense game. We just couldn’t finish it, “said coach Barnes.

Ironton took his last lead when arranged by Shrek from a perfect pass from Barnes And it was 57-56.

Playing 3 points from Kazi with 2:15 left gave the panther lead and arranged by Drew Plantz gave a lead to Chesapik for good at 61-59.

Frecka, Philip Thacker and Plantz All went 2 out of 2 of the fouls in the last minute of the game to seal the victory.

Perkins scored 20 points and Kazi 18 to lead the panthers. Frecka added 10 points from the bench.
