Bellefontaine made 11-of-15 attempts at the foul line in the fourth quarter to squeeze out a 54-48 victory over host Troy in a non-league boys basketball game.
“Rebounding was big for us late in the game and we were able to knock down some big free throws,” said Bellefontaine guard Nicklaus Lyons, who scored a season-high nine points. “We also took better care of the ball.”
The Chiefs pushed their winning streak to six games and are now 7-1 on the season. Troy falls to 3-5.
