Jeremy Williams scored 19 while Kyle Geer and Mike Lomax had 17 points apiece as Bassick turned a close game into an 82-74 victory over St. Joseph Tuesday night at Bassick.
The Lions, who are now 3-5, also denied St. Joseph coach Vito Montelli his 800th career victory. Greg Langston did his best with 32 points, but he received little help from his foul-plagued teammates. St. Joseph falls to 6-3.
The night, however, was not devoid of milestones. While Montelli was missing out on 800, Bunnell coach Pat Yerina earned No. 200 when Chris Rosario‘s tip-in at the buzzer gave Bunnell 49-48 victory over Weston.
(That’s 200 down, but 599 more to catch Vito, Pat.)
