Late push helps DCS rally past Danville

0

It took some time for the Delaware Christian boys basketball team to get going, but once it did there was little host Danville could do about it.

The Eagles, who trailed 58-44 heading into the fourth quarter, outscored the Blue Devils 27-12 down the stretch to seal a thrilling 71-70 win Tuesday in Danville.

Senior Adam Standley, who finished with 21 points, 10 rebounds and six steals, scored the go-ahead bucket with 6.2 seconds left.

DCS had its best offensive output in the fourth, but had its defense to thank for it. The Eagles forced nine fourth-quarter turnovers to ignite the late rally.

Other Delaware Christian standouts included Isaac Rindfuss, who had a career-high 22 points to go with two steals; and Seth Standley, who finished with a career-best 17 points, four rebounds and two steals.

The Eagles’ top trio accounted for 43 points in the second half alone.
