Herd That got off to a strong start at The Basketball Tournament with a convincing 80-65 victory over the Peoria All-Stars.
JaCorey Williams starred with 22 points and nine rebounds, while Jon Elmore added nine points, eight rebounds and 10 dimes. Trevon Allen was the only consistent offense for the Peoria All-Stars with 26 points and eight boards.
Herd That let it rain from deep during the win:
"You can have a lot of fun playing in this style," Williams told Josh Goldfine of TheTournament.com. "You can't guard this style of play because there are no set plays. You can't prepare for it."
Herd That is the alumni team from Marshall University. Up next for the group will be a Round 2 matchup with No. 7 The Money Team on Thursday.
No. 22 Sideline Cancer def. No. 11 Team Hines, 93-91
You want drama? This game brought the drama.
Marcus Keene's game-winning jumper as time expired gave Sideline Cancer a 93-91 win over Team Hines. He had some ice in the veins:
Keene was the best player on the court with 29 points, six assists and six boards. That spoiled strong performances from Team Hines' Brandon Paul (23 points, 13 rebounds) and Ethan Happ (20 points).
Up next for Sideline Cancer is a matchup with No. 6 Challenge ALS on Tuesday.
No. 19 Men of Mackey def. No. 14 Heartfire, 83-79
Justin Dentmon went hero mode Sunday.
The Men of Mackey star popped off with 30 points, leading his team to a hotly contested 83-79 victory. Isaiah Austin did all he could for the losing side, with 17 points and six rebounds. While Dentmon clearly led the way for Men of Mackey, Heartfire had five different players with double-digit points.
That team effort wasn't enough to shut down Dentmon's hot hand, however, or his team's late push. They found themselves trailing 77-71 when the Elam Ending kicked in and 85 became the magic score to reach for the win.
Next up for Men of Mackey will be a matchup with No. 3 Boeheim's Army on Tuesday.
No. 15 Armored Athlete def. No. 18 Power of the Paw, 98-91
John Roberson and Scott Machado were quite the dynamic duo for Armored Athlete on Sunday night.
Roberson led the squad with 26 points and five assists, while Machado added 23 points and two steals in the 98-91 win over Power of the Paw.
That spoiled a strong showing from Donte Grantham (20 points, four rebounds, two assists).
Up next for Armored Athlete is No. 2 Overseas Elite on Thursday.
