Free throws, defense drive Dolphins to 43-41 win over Milton
The Dolphins (11-8, 3-4 in District 1-4A play) used defense and free throws to avenge an early season loss to Milton (8- 9). Gulf Breeze forced seven Panther turnovers in the fourth quarter, scoring 11 points off those turnovers. Bryan Shreve, who scored 11 points, hit four free throws in the final 1:07 as the Dolphins finished the game going 11-for- 15 from the stripe. Dustin Clements, who had seven points, drove baseline and threw down a two-handed jam in the second quarter, dispelling a report last week that his foot had been broken. Milton led by five at the half before Zach Andrews, making his second straight start, converted a three-point play in the third quarter to give the Dolphins their first lead at 26-25. The Panthers had a chance to tie the game, but missed a shot in the closing seconds. Andrews had nine points, while David Hibberts and Matt Catellier had five each, Alec Cann three, Garrett Carr two and Jeff White one. Hibberts also had five rebounds and five steals. Escambia 47, Dolphins 45 The Dolphins gave up two offensive rebounds, an offensive foul and a turnover in the final two minutes as Shreve's three-pointer rimmed out at the buzzer. Shreve had 19 points, while Hibberts had nine, Carr, Andrews, Cann, Catellier and Clements all had two. White had six rebounds for the Dolphins, who host Navarre tonight. Dolphin JV 33, Milton JV 30 Gulf Breeze rallied from nine down in the fourth quarter, getting two free throws from Joey Bodovetz with 33.6 seconds left and one from Marco Joseph with 4.9 seconds left. Joseph and Bodovetz had 12 and 10 points, respectively. Escambia JV 48, Dolphins 43 Drew Lynch's 16 led Gulf Breeze in a loss at Escambia.
