Olentangy senior Sean Marks needed just three points to get to 1,000 for his career entering Saturday’s showdown with host Parkersburg South … and he didn’t waste any time getting them.

Marks hit a triple on the Braves’ first possession of the game, setting the tone for what turned into a solid 68-57 non-league win — a victory which helped Olentangy to a 1-1 finish in its two-day trip to West Virginia.

Marks, who became the program’s fourth 1,000-point scorer, finished with a game-high 30. Luke Riedel was also steady, finishing with 14 points in the win.

Olentangy started fast, opening things with a 19-11 first quarter. Parkersburg used a 15-10 second to tighten things up by halftime, but the Braves won the third 17-13 and the fourth 22-18 to seal the deal.
