DIAGONAL —
The Seymour Warrior boys basketball team was down by 12 at the half, but went to a full-court trap to force turnovers and eventually win the game 54-51 against Diagonal. Trevor Sherrard pulled down an offensive rebound and passed the ball to Trevor Banks, who hit a game-winning three pointer as time expired.
“Very pleased with the intensity change in the second half,” Seymour head boys basketball coach Paul Hinner said. “We talked at halftime about turning up the pressure on the defensive end, and the team responded.”
Banks ended the game with 22 points while Sherrard had a double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds. Banks and Sherrard both ended with five assists each.
Brody Eldridge also scored in double-digits with 11 points.
Seymour improves to 2-12 on the season. The Warriors lost to Moravia on Tuesday. They host Melcher-Dallas tomorrow.
