Trade two for one outlines Rams chance at Carbondale rematch
Mt. Vernon coach Bob Arnold said his team would trade two for one if it helps a potential super-sectional clash with Carbondale. He noted the Rams’ 68-65 loss to the unbeaten Terriers and predicted Benton's standout defense could slow Carbondale in the Feb. 21 meeting. He praised Carbondale’s quick transition and 34 point, 13 rebound performance by Taylor and discussed the upcoming Cahokia Du Quoin first round in the holiday tournament with an eye toward earning a rematch.
