Allen Sinks Seward in Iola

Seward head coach Bryan Zollinger summed up his team’s play during the Liberal Standard Supply Postgame Report. They play well for five minutes, then struggle for five minutes. That was the case Wednesday in Iola as the Allen Red Devils beat the Saints 85-80 in Iola.

The Saints jumped to a 32-22 lead in the first half but the Red Devils ripped off a 19-5 run to lead 41-37 at the half. The Saints led most of the early second half but Allen took a 72-71 lead with 3:38 to go and didn’t look back. Seward shot 48 percent but only had six assists. The Saints only forced seven Allen turnovers and turned it over 17 times. The Saints lost despite Kevin Sims  second straight 37 point game. Seward is 2-6 in the KJCCC while Allen snaps a four game losing skid and is 3-5. Seward hosts Neosho Saturday at 8 on 107.5 and kscbnews.net. McDonald’s is the buyout sponsor.
