TORONTO — The Indian Creek boys’ basketball team wants to play at a slower pace, while Toronto wants to get out and run.

Indian Creek got off to a fast start in the fourth quarter as a 9-2 spurt enabled the Redskins to race out to a seven-point advantage.

The Red Knights rallied and closed to within two with under two minutes left, however, Indian Creek collected the final two baskets of the game en route to a 47-41 victory Friday night inside the George J. Kunzler Memorial Gymnasium.

The boys from the Gem City hit a 3 to go up 13-9 in the second before later extending their advantage to 16-11.

The visitors closed to within 20-19 before a late basket gave Toronto a 22-19 advantage heading into the locker room at halftime.

The victors regained the lead in the third, however, a free throw by the Red-and-White knotted the score at 32 entering the fourth.

Trailing by four, Toronto called a timeout with 27.3 seconds left, however, the Red Knights were unable to score, and a run out led to a layup for the Redskins with eight seconds left to seal the deal.
