The Arabians dominated Hoosier Heritage Conference foe Greenfield-Central 70-31 on Friday night to record its fourth win in five games.
The win put PH above .500 for the first time this season at 7-6 and evened its Hoosier Heritage Conference record at 3-3. The Arabians are 6-2 in their last eight games.
The contest was competitive for a little more than a quarter as the Arabians held a modest 12-11 lead, but they turned up the effort on the defensive end, stayed patient on the offensive end, and made Greenfield-Central look like a grade school team.
PH went on a 15-0 second quarter run to stretch its lead to 31-17 at halftime. The Arabians carried that momentum into the second half when they put together an impressive stretch of basketball and blew the Cougars off the court.
Nathan Hendershot led all scorers with 16 points on 7-of-7 shooting and Ryan Albers scored a season-high 11 points. Those were the only two Arabians in double-figures, but Michael Maxwell, Kellen Dunham, and Patrick Obras contributed nine points apiece.
Kendall Waters had another solid performance at the point guard position as he scored eight points and dished at 12 assists. Waters was a key component in settling the team down and executing the offense.
PH has a pair of challenging games next week as it hosts HHC rival
