CORNING — Nodaway Valley scored a season-high 115 points, including a 74-8 lead at halftime, in rolling past the Red Raiders Tuesday night.
Brad Baudler shot 5-of-6 from 3-point range in outscoring Corning by himself with a 29-point effort for the Wolverines (15-1). Also scoring in double figures were T.J. Bower with 12 and Dan Ehrsam 11. Thirteen Nodaway Valley players scored at least three points.
NV shot 16-30 on 3-pointers as nine different players made 3-point baskets. Bower had seven assists, seven steals and three assists in a big overall game, and Ehrsam turned in eight assists and three steals.
“Our guys shot the ball extremely well and our bench played well — 49 of the 115 points came from the bench,” NV coach Darrell Burmeister said.
Keegan Longabaugh scored nine points with three assists for Corning (1-15) and Nick Spring added six points. Spring grabbed four rebounds and Quintin Wilcoxsin grabbed three while scoring four points.
“Nodaway Valley showed why they are near the top of the rankings in 2A,” Corning coach Pete Nett said. “We had actually been having more success breaking other team’s pressure packages the past few games, but their press rally gave us fits. We had some success stuffing the ball inside to our posts, but we didn’t get to the free throw line nearly as much as we needed to tonight.”
Mount Ayr 44, Bedford 43
MOUNT AYR — Isaac Weed’s 3-point shot at the buzzer fell short as Bedford’s upset bid was thwarted against Mount Ayr in a Pride of Iowa Conference battle Tuesday.
