Linville Hill 51 Lancaster Country Day 42
Boys 1A Finals District 3
March 3, 2022

Does the early start effect attendance? Nah…seemed like the entire stunted today was in attendance for both teams. In a high level skilled 1A boys finals, Linville road a 18-11 4th quarter to take home the title. Linville was led by Jesse Landis, 6’1” sn, with 15 points and 5’11” jn, Matt Lapp with 19 points. LCDay unofficially had 20 for the Lions. LCDay used a match-up zone/switching man for most of the game. Linville relied on mostly man defense.

Jesse Landis started the scoring for Linville on a follow and a jumper at the 4:45 mark to give Linville a slight lead at 4-2. Matt Lapp, 5’11” jn, hit a three ball and a layup at the 2:45 mark as Linville had a small advantage at 9-6. Chris Hedbany, 6’2” sn, popped a three ball for LCDay. Jake Kumah, 5’10” soph,  for LCDay. converted a drive with 1 tick left in the quarter. The quarter ended at 12-11.

Neither team put together any runs in the second period. Linville had the largest lead at 23-17, but Grant Landis would score back to back trips- his last a drive around the 2 minute mark.The quarter ended at 24-22. Half stats were very even – rebounds 10 Linville, 9 for LCDay, turnovers; Lville 5 LCDay 3.

LCDay used a 9-2 run to start the third to take their largest lead at 31-26. Baskets by Hedbavny- layup, Christian Hein-layup, a follow by Mick Cook and a Landis driving at the 2:18 mark gave Lville a brief lead at 42-20. Grant Landis would answer with a long distance TWO around the 2 minute mark. The Lions would not score again. Mr. King pops his second big-time three at the 1:48 mark. LCDay had several opportunities to close the gap but could not convert. Linville made enough fouls down the stretch to secure the W.

Unofficial stats:
Rebounds: Linville 22 LCDay 21
Turnovers: Linville 7 LCDay 8 (5 in the 4th quarter)
