(Concluded from Page 20) canned a 3 on a feed from Allen, Nolan Ahrens (12 points) absorbed contact to finish a basket-and-foul and Tyler Begle (nine points) accepted a lead pass from Allen off the Jeeps’ third straight turnover and elevated for a finger-roll. The Jeeps played headstrong through the opening 11 minutes, when they reached the bonus with 1:06 left in the first quarter. But the sudden swing was a product of the Cats’ three-quarters-court trap defense — which menaces more through a cumulative effect, said Jasper coach John Goebel, whose squad engineered a 19-3 charge to start the second half and built a 59-33 advantage on Allen’s two free throws with 1:26 left in the third. “From the very beginning of the game, I thought our defensive intensity was outstanding,” Goebel said. “And Dubois got a couple early buckets and they earned them. But a press isn’t designed to get a steal every possession and get steals right off the bat. It’s designed to make the opponent have to work to get the ball up the floor the entire game. And over the course of that, there will be mistakes made and there will be fatigue if they don’t have a deep enough bench. … We stuck to our gameplan pretty nice tonight.” Other than the two spurts “where we got fast,” Friedman said, there were points for solace scattered throughout for the Jeeps, who host Blue Chip Conference foe Wood Memorial (13-4, 3-1) tonight at 8. The Jeeps knocked down five 3s, tying their season high, and converted 19-of-24 free

Northeast Dubois coach Terry Friedman tried rallying Eric Dodson, left, Drew Jacob and Brayden Wineinger and teammates during halftime of Friday’s bout in Dubois with Jasper, which won 70-58. throws as Jacob (11 points) hit all seven of his foul shots and Dodson (11 points, eight rebounds) hit 5-of6. Tristan Linne deposited three triples and ended with 10 points and Jacob Gress, who picked up a technical foul along with Friedman during Jasper’s second-half surge, tallied 11 points as well to make it four Jeeps in double figures. To boot, Keigan Meyer fused five points with three blocks and the freshman “did not seem to be intimidated,” Friedman said. “He belonged on the court. “We’re getting better,” Friedman added. “There are some things tonight I wish we could have done better, but I’ve really got to credit Jasper and their

defense.” After forcing 23 turnovers against the Jeeps in their 80-46 victory in late December at the Dubois County Hoops Classic, the Cats jetted for 26 points off turnovers Friday and sank 25 of their 43 shots. And after Begle’s layup and the Jeeps’ subsequent timeout, the satisfaction wasn’t hard to see. Begle clenched both fists as he trotted back to the bench, and Eckert tilted his head back and let out a roar, as did Nottingham and Ahrens. “Our adrenaline and everything was going,” Allen said. “It was fun.” How about when things aren’t going as smoothly? That will spell

the test, Goebel assured. “When things are going well, it’s easy to be positive, and we certainly were. We had a reason to be. What I’d like to see is, when things aren’t going so well, to have the same enthusiasm and energy,” said Goebel, whose crew welcomes Class 4A No. 6 New Albany (14-2) to the JHS gym tonight at 7:30. “It’s always easy to have faith when things are going your way, but it’s difficult to have faith when you run into obstacles. That’s true in basketball and it’s true in life. That’s what we try to teach them.”

Fully assembled, Pats still feel early lag From Herald Staff Reports The Heritage Hills boys basketball team has finally gathered all of its scattered pieces, fully healthy for the B OY S first time all BASKETBALL season. Now, the Wildcats.......... 62 are Patriots............ 44 Patriots hoping to jumpstart some continuity among those parts in the second half of

the season. It didn’t happen on Friday night in Evansville, as the Patriots couldn’t overcome an early deficit against Class 2A No. 9 Evansville Mater Dei in a 62-44 setback. The Wildcats (12-3) jumped ahead 22-10 after one quarter behind 11 points from senior leading scorer Jacob Stauber. The Pats stayed within 10 at halftime, but Mater Dei built an 18-point edge heading into the fourth quarter.

Stauber finished with a gamehigh 21 points while four Mater Dei starters scored at least 10 points. Devin Straub canned a pair of 3s to finish with 14 points, and Josh Price and Ben Sellers added 10 apiece. Gavin Schaefer led the Patriots (8-6) with 14 points and Mason Becher reprised his starting role after missing the Pats’ last contest with the flu and chipped in nine points. Sam Collins added six

points and Alec Meunier and Dalton Selvidge each finished with three points as they hit the Patriots’ only two 3-pointers. After three games on the road, Heritage Hills returns to Lincoln City tonight for a 7:30 CST tipoff against county rival South Spencer (10-6, 4-1 Pocket Athletic Conference). The Rebels clipped the Patriots 65-64 last month at the PSC Holiday Classic on a go-ahead shot near the end of the game.

Manning still dwelling on next year’s plan By The Associated Press PHOENIX — Peyton Manning is still thinking over his future, making no commitment to returning to the Broncos SPORTS for his 18th NOTEBOOK NFL season. “I’m taking some time to assess some things and to see,” Manning said Friday, after accepting the Bart Starr Award in Phoenix. “Of course, I think that’s something that’s important to me, is not whether I can physically do it for myself, (but) can I physically do it to help the team?” Manning delivered a shocker after Denver’s 24-13 loss to Indianapolis in the playoffs, reversing course from a month earlier and saying he was unsure whether he’d return for a fourth year with the Broncos. The team then parted ways with coach John Fox and hired Gary Kubiak. Manning said he’s had dinner and a few good conversations with the new coach but they haven’t talked football. Throughout his coaching career, Kubiak has designed mainly

West Coast offenses that often require the quarterback to line up under center and roll out. Manning, who will be 39 at the start of the 2015 season, has never been mobile. He’s been most comfortable making quick throws out of the shotgun in recent years. “If I choose to come back, I feel pretty comfortable that, aside maybe from Tubby Raymond’s Delaware Blue Hen Wing-T offense, I feel pretty comfortable playing in any offense,” Manning said. He feels confident he can pass a physical in March, which would be a key consideration for the Broncos, who would owe him $19 million for 2015 if he’s on the roster when the new league year starts. Laird leads; Woods leaves SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Rain wasn’t the only thing that put a damper on the Phoenix Open on Friday. The rowdiest event on the PGA Tour goes into Super Bowl weekend without Tiger Woods, who had the worst score of his career and missed the cut by 12 shots. Also gone is Phil Mickelson, who had his worst round on the TPC Scottsdale in six years.

Once the rain stopped, Martin Laird played his best golf and he doesn’t think that was a coincidence. He ran off four birdies in a five-hole stretch until making his first bogey of the tournament on his final hole for a second straight 5-under 66. That gave him a two-shot lead over Daniel Berger (69), with Justin Thomas (68) another shot behind. Both 21-year-old rookies received sponsor’s exemptions. Jurors can watch Super Bowl FALL RIVER, Mass. — The 18 New England residents sitting on the jury in the murder trial of former Patriots star Aaron Hernandez will be allowed to watch the home team play in Sunday’s Super Bowl, but the judge overseeing the case says they must leave the room if his name is mentioned. Hernandez caught quarterback Tom Brady’s last Super Bowl touchdown pass in the Patriots’ 2012 loss to the New York Giants. Now he is on trial for murder, charged with the June 2013 killing of Odin Lloyd, who was dating his fiancee’s sister. Bristol County Superior Court Judge Susan Garsh closed the sec-

ond day of testimony Friday by telling jurors they may watch the game if it is important to them, but they must be vigilant for mention of the case or Hernandez. “You hear that word, you’ve got to walk out of the room,” Garsh said. “Distance yourself.” Elliott headlines NASCAR class CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Bill Elliott headlined the sixth class of inductees into NASCAR’s Hall of Fame, a group that included three champions, the first AfricanAmerican winner and a driver with movie star looks. “Awesome Bill From Dawsonville” was NASCAR’s 1988 champion, a 44-race winner and the first driver to win the Winston Million bonus in 1985 for winning three NASCAR crown jewel races. A 16-time winner of NASCAR’s most popular driver award, Elliott won two Daytona 500s and the Southern 500 three times. His induction came one day after his 19-year-old son, Chase, was named by Hendrick Motorsports as the driver who will replace four-time champion Jeff Gordon in the iconic No. 24.
