STUDENTS SEE MARK IS A FAST LARNER!

November 9, 2021

MARK LARNER ONCE AGAIN EXCELLED AS TROJANS 1 EVENTUALLY EASED TO VICTORY NUMBER 2 TO MAINTAIN THEIR 100% RECORD IN THEIR STACCATO START TO THE SEASON.

WITH THE FIRST QUARTER AGING RAPIDLY THEY LOOKED ANYTHING LIKE WINNERS AS THEY TRAILED TO COVENTRY UNIVERSITY 16-10, HAVING ENDURED AN AWFUL OPENING TO THE GAME. HOWEVER, THINGS CHANGED WITHIN SECONDS OF THE RESTART AND THE HEREWARD HOSTS SCORCHED INTO THE LEAD BEFORE TURNING AT 40-23 – A 27-7 PERIOD.

SUCH WAS TROJANS’ DOMINANCE THAT THEY WERE TWENTY POINTS UP BEFORE THEY LAPSED A LITTLE TOWARDS THE END OF THE THIRD, WHICH BROUGHT A RALLY FROM THE UNIVERSITY WHO STILL TRAILED THOUGH, NOW BY 14.

THE FINAL QUARTER SAW A CAPITULATION FROM THE VISITORS AS TROJANS BANKED A 32-17 TEN MINUTES TO WIN THE MATCH 82-50. LARNER SPED UP AND DOWN THE COURT TO LAND 30 POINTS WITH DOMINK GORGOL (PICTURED) DRAINING 17 AS 6’6″ SERBANESCU USED HIS HEIGHT AND THREE-POINT PROWESS TO HIT 20 FOR THE SCHOLARS.
