Senior Brady O’Shea scored 18 points in the first half, including five three-pointers and the Swanton Bulldogs held off the Toledo Christian Eagles 61-53 on Tuesday’s Senior Night Celebration at Swanton’s McQuade Gymnasium.  The Bulldogs held a very tenuous 43-41 lead entering the fourth quarter but built an eight-point cushion on the strength of two baskets from behind the arc by Brady Haselman and four consecutive high-pressure free throws by Owen Hurst to seal the victory.

O’Shea led Swanton and all players with 21 points.  Haselman scored 12 points and Evan Reinhard add 10.  Josiah Hillrich topped the Eagles, out of the Toledo Area Athletic Conference, with 18 points and Josiah Michalski added 12.

The win improves the Bulldogs’ record to 7-14 on the season.  Sitting at 0-6 in the NWOAL, they will be at home tonight hoping to pick up their first league win against the (17-4/5-1) Patrick Henry Patriots.  This coming Wednesday, Swanton will be at home to face the Delta Panthers at 6:00 PM in an OHSAA Division V Sectional Semi-Final Playoff contest.
