run and went ahead at 42-

Ferriter.
But with the game tied
at 42-42 with two minutes
to play, the Porters turned
it over as Stanback made a
steal. He got the ball to senior
guard Oscar Parrish III
(9 points), who completed
an old-fashioned 3-point
play to give the Vikings the
lead for good. With 1:20
left, Ogom drove to the
basket and got fouled by
Halatek. He made both free
throws for a 47-42 lead and

“That makes it very difficult
to win. I just need to
do a better job coaching
them to make better decisions
and cleaning up some
details.
“We had a tough time rebounding
in crucial spots
and I thought their physicality
on defense really took us
out of our rhythm for large
stretches of the game. It was
nice to see Tommy Ferriter
play a second straight really
nice game. He threw down a
breakaway dunk in the first
quarter.”
This Friday, Jan. 18,
brings the modern-day rivalry
game as Lockport takes
on Sandburg at 6 p.m. in an
SWSC Blue game in Orland
Park.
