Parsippany Hills, the 2nd seed in the Group 3 Sectional,
got all they could handle from a scrappy Summit team. Summit
employed an aggressive zone defense throughout the game to keep
the Par Hills' stars Morant and Cobb under control. It was very
successful in keeping the high scoring Vikings at bay. Par Hills
took a sizable early lead, 16-7, but Summit fought back to pull
to within 3 points at the half. Summit exploded in the third
quarter behind a hard trapping defense and 9 points from Kurt
Forsyth and took a 38-31 lead as the 3rd quarter ended. The
aggressive defense, however, took its toll in the foul department
as many Summit players had 3 fouls. Par Hills started the 4th
quarter with 2 quick baskets but Dan Dugan hit for 2 points
to make the score 40-35. Four more Par Hills points made it a
one point game until Jon Campagna hit a field goal to
restore a 3 point advantage. With about 3 minutes left in the
game Campagna got his 5th foul and had to leave the game.
With Campagna out of the game, and John Martini sidelined
with an ankle problem, Summit was at a big disadvantage in trying
to defense 6' 7" Johnny Morant. PH quickly tied the game
at 42-42 but Forsyth hit a basket and the score was 44-42.
Two free throws by Par Hills and 2 by Ryan Carey left
the score at 46-44. With 2 minutes left Par Hills tied it up
again and then went on to hit two FTs to move ahead by 2 points
with 1:27 left on the clock. A 5th foul on Lamar Freeman
meant Summit had lost a 2nd starter. Four free throws by Forsyth
put Summit back on top by 2, but ParHills again tied the game
with about 20 sec. left. Summit had one more possession, but
failed to score.
At the start of overtime PH ran off 5 straight points before
Forsyth hit a field goal. Unfortunately, that was the last
score he would make because he picked up a 5th foul. Now Summit
had 3 starters on the bench, and its best rebounders were out
of the game. Subsequently, Dan Dugan also fouled out and
with only 9 players on the roster all the eligible players were
on the court. Par Hills built a 58-53 lead with about 35 second
left in overtime. Ted Schrafft drained a 3 pointer to
raise Summit's hopes, but Par Hills ran the table by making four
straight foul shots. |
