Brownsburg High School
Brownsburg 54 – Zionsville 50

In a physical Hoosier Crossroads Conference bout, the Dogs prevailed due in much part to a priceless 6th man – the DOG POUND. The student section and the continuous clapping through the fourth quarter propelled the Dogs to go on a 9-0 run. This came in time due to a slow start. The Dogs trailed 9-18 after the first quarter. Zionsville’s hot shooting of 66% put them on top 23-33 at the half. But the Dogs got things going in the third thanks to great team defense forcing the Eagles into 17 total turnovers and an efficient offensive attack. Timely baskets by Austin Fish, J.D. Cosby and Enique Mason gave the Dogs the lead for good down the stretch. In all the Dogs outscored the Eagles 31-17 in the second half to claim their first victory of the season and their first HCC victory. The Dogs were lead by J.D. Cosby with 16 and 5 assists. Austin Fish dropped in 14 points on 4-7 shooting from behind the arc. Torrey Nibbs connected for 9 points, Mason and Stevens both sank six points and Eldridge added three more.
