DAT photo North Wood's Cameron Williams handles the ball In the open court Friday against Triton. Panthers , cont. from Page A 6 final stanza. After being held without a field goal the entire game, Paul finally nailed one of his trademark 3-pointers at the 5:17 mark of the fourth quarter, then bagged another with 3:30 left to draw the Panthers to within three points at 38-35. Meanwhile, Triton (2-1) turned the ball over on three straight possessions but still clung to a 40-37 lead with 47.5 seconds left after two free throws by Carpenter. Paul then brought a raucous home crowd to its feet with a long 3 from fHe top ot mewfy, his third of the quarter, to tie the game at 40 with 27.5'seconds left. Carpenter got a good look at a 3 at the buzzer to win the game, but the shot was short and left, sending the game to overtime. In Hie extra session, junior forward jakyah Qaiyim, a transfer from Elkhart Memorial, quickly put the Panthers in front with a bucket off an offensive rebound (his fifth offensive board of the night) but Griffyn Carpenter tied it at 42 with a pair of free throws. From that point on, it was all North Wood as junior guard Derek Yoder canned a jumper at the 1:40 mark to make it 44-42 North Wood, and the Panthers hit six free throws down the stretch to pull away for the win. "It was a season opener, and we wanted to play to our strengths," Wolfe said. "1 think balance is a strength; we have multiple guys that can score. "We wanted to challenge shots, and that started with our ability to control the basketball," he added. "I thought the experience of our guards showed up in ballhandling situations." Paul led all scorers with 15 points, but it was far from a one-man show as seniors Aaron Rhoade and Cameron "Coo' 1 Williams added 10 points apiece, while Qaiyim chipped in eight points and eight rebounds. Triton was paced by the Carpenter brothers, 12 for Quentyn and 11 for Griffyn, while Clay Yeo added nine points in the losing effort. In the opening JV game, after trailing at the half 20-18, North Wood rallied to down Triton 39-33 behind 13 points from freshman Jonathan Wilkinson. Tommy Klem added nine points for the winners, while Ryan Gerber contributed seven. Seth Glingle led the Trojans with 12 points and Drew Mosson added nine, all on 3-pointers. • NORTHWOOD SO, TRITON 43, OT At The Pit, Nappanee TRITON (43): Griffyn Carpenter 3 4-611, Clay Yeo 3 3-4 9, Zak Shively 0 0-0 0, Dane Kennedy 0 0-0 0, Marc Lindsey 0 0-0 0, Quentyn Carpenter 4 22 12, Austin Davis 0 00 0, Jordan Everett 2 0-0 5, Blake Lemler 3 0-0 6 TOTALS 15 9-12 43 NORTHWOOD (50): Michael Paul 4 4-6 15.
