The Maryville College Fighting Scots rolled to 5-0 on the season after a 91-77 victory over the Eagles of Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia Thursday evening.
Maryville opened the first half with sluggish perimeter shooting and minimal second shot opportunities. Maryville earned a three-point advantage with 9:25 remaining only to see the Eagles go on an 8-0 run to put MC down by five. With 8:00 remaining before the half, the Scots capitalized on Emory turnovers to take a 37-32 lead into the locker-room.
The second half was a strong display of Bobby Golden’s post play. The junior who finished with 23 points tallied 16 in the second period. Emory chose to go to a zone to minimize Golden’s impact and Maryville's perimeter turned up the heat. Guards Monte Calloway and Bo Mason hit for 16 and 13 points respectively.
Coach Lambert was impressed that the Scots posted five players in double figures. He was also excited about the efforts of Bradley Blair and Jonathan Johnson. “Bradley gave us a solid 12 point first half effort off the bench after Bobby (Golden) received his second foul, stated Coach Lambert. ”Jonathan hit some key free throws down the stretch en route to his 13 point evening and played a solid defense for MC tonight.”
Emory was paced by the 24-point effort of Jeff Hall.
The Scots will travel to Fayetteville, North Carolina to challenge Methodist College on Sunday December 4th. Tip-off against the Monarchs will be at 4:00 p.m.
WBCR AM 1470 will not be able to cover the Methodist contest.
Make plans to see the Scots in action Wednesday, December 7 at 7:30 p.m. against King College or Saturday, December 10 at 3:00 p.m. as MC hosts Transylvania University at Cooper Athletic Center.
