Leopards Show Clutch in Home Scrimmages

Pavin Parks Louisville Leopards Basketball Scrimmage 2012

The Louisville Leopards, Padua Bruins, and Youngstown Ursuline Irish competed in a three-Beatty's Winter Hoodiesteam Boys Basketball scrimmage Monday at Louisville High School.  The three squads faced off in 11 eight minute sessions that featured a running clock until the final minute that included normal timing.

The Leopards won 3 of their 4 sessions against the Bruins, but fell in all four sessions to the Irish.  Ursuline also defeated Padua in all three sessions they played making them a perfect 7-0 for the night.

Below is a recap of two thrilling sessions:

Pavin Parks Game-Winning Fast Break

In the first session, Louisville erased a 7-2 deficit by scoring the final 7 points of the contest.  In the final seconds, Joe Crank forced a loose ball that was retrieved by Pavin Parks.  Parks drove all the way to the hole for the lay-in to give the Leopards the game at 9-7.

Jake Adams Game-Winning 3-Pointer

The Leopards showed clutch again in the seventh session against the Bruins.  Jake Adams hit a three-pointer to put Louisville ahead 9-6 with 1.3 seconds remaining.  A foul after the shot also sent Drew Noble to the line for a 1-and-1 opportunity.  Noble buried both free throws to seal the 11-6 victory for the Leps.
