Ottawa Wins Behind Strong Press And Freewheeling Fourth
Ottawa holds off Turner as the Cyclones avoid a late collapse in the fourth quarter. Spratt, Templeton and Hermreck lead a balanced attack as Ottawa improves to 7-2, enjoying a school record 18 assists from Spratt in a prior game and pushing JV and freshman squads to 6-0 and 2-0 respectively. Turner’s defense tightens late but Ottawa’s press forces opponents to flood backcourt, letting Drumright’s two baskets spark momentum.
