Antioch 61, Boylan 41

The Antioch Squoits (5-5, 4-0) took apart Boylan Catholic on Friday night 61-41 in Antioch. The mythical swamp creatures have length and the 1-3-1 defenses employed by Coach Sean Connor takes advantage of that length.

Boylan was forced to shoot over that zone in the first half. A couple threes keep the Titans close but Antioch pulled away. The Titans rallied a little with great ball movement in the second half against the 1-3-1 and got some back door buckets but they could not keep it up.

The Sequoits are a true point guard away from being really good. As it is, they sit on top of the Northern Lake County Conference (not to be confused with the Northern Illinois Conference) at 4-0 heading into the Wheeling tournament next week where they can do some damage.

Keep on eye on Sean’s Antioch Sequoits. They are a team on the move.
