St. John’s Ryan Buescher heads to the basket after blocking a shot with Crestview’s Alec Heffner trailing Friday night at Arnzen Gym. The visiting Knights grabbed a 6-point triumph.

The Knights are now 3-0. It was the first game for the Blue Jays.

It was an impressive defensive performance by both teams -- combined with some cold shooting at both ends -- that led to a 28-27

Delphos lead going into the fourth stanza. Crestview’s 6-6, 285-pound post, Josh Ream, then muscled in a layup to put the visitors up 29-28. The Jays’ muscular 6-3 center, Seth Bockey, split a pair of free throws to tie it at 29 and that’s when Knight junior Etzler took over at the offensive end.
