DUKE CENTER – Don Catalone and Jon Lundburg keyed a 16-3 burst over the final 4:30, as Cameron County won its fifth straight game with a 57-45 come-from-behind win over a very pesky Otto-Eldred Terrors squad Monday night in Duke Center.
The Terrors (4-5 overall, 0-2 NTL) took a 42-41 lead with 4:30 to play on a 3-pointer by Shawn Barnish. But the Red Raiders (7-1, 2-0) scored the next 11 points to take control of the game.
Catalone scored 15 of his team-high 21 points in the fourth quarter, while Lundburg netted six of his nine points in the final stanza.
Wayne Taylor paced all scorers with 26 points for Otto-Eldred.
After a very sloppy first half, Cameron County led 19-17 at halftime thanks to nine points from Dan Sullivan, who finished with 14. Otto-Eldred battled back and tied the game at 31 at the end of three quarters, and the contest went back and forth early in the final stanza before Otto took its final lead on Barnish’s 3-pointer.
Both teams are back in action Thursday night with Cameron County hosting Coudersport and Otto-Eldred traveling to Smethport.
