The Giles boys’ basketball team won at home versus Dayspring last Tuesday 75-34.

Trevor Myers, who started in place of a sick Caleb Tilley, set the theme of the game by going into the paint for a quick layup to begin the game.

"I tried to put a lot of pressure on them (Dayspring) to get some turnovers and layups," Giles coach Mitch Reed said.

While the game was close the first few minutes Giles’ man to man defense literally stole any offense that Dayspring had at the beginning of the game. Codey Williams decided to build his home inside the paint and he scored eight of Giles’ 21 points in the first quarter. Giles led 21-12 at the end of the first quarter.

"I told them before we started to get the ball in to him," Reed said.

Williams scored three straight times at one point in the second quarter and totaled 13 points for that quarter alone. He had 21 points at halftime. The only offense that Dayspring had was at the foul line, scoring six of their eight points from free throws. Giles led 40-20 going into halftime.

Williams continued where he left off by beginning the third quarter with four points. Williams had 32 points for the Spartans, a career high. The Spartans continued man to man defense and limited Dayspring to only four points that quarter. Travis Robertson added five of his 11 points that quarter and Myers added a three.

Talon Minnick, Chris Collins and Myers added valuable minutes the fourth quarter. Minnick scored six of his eight points in the fourth quarter and Collins scored four of his six points in the fourth quarter. Myers contributed with great passing and had four assists during the fourth quarter.

"He’s probably one of the best players I have as far as seeing the floor," Reed said. "He wants to find his teammates and make plays."

Giles scored 12 points to Dayspring’s ten points in the fourth.

"I was proud of everybody, everybody hustled and got after it no matter who I put in the game," Reed said. "It was a good effort."

Scoring for Giles were Williams with 32 points, Robertson with 11 points, Minnick with eight points, Collins with six points, Frankie Robertson and Myers with five points each, Andy Randel with four points, Greg Ray and Brooks Haynie with two points each.

Giles defeated Glenvar 73-42 last Wednesday at home. While Randel was quiet from the realm of three-point land during Tuesday’s game, he made his presence known Wednesday. Randel scored 29 points for the Spartans, 24 of those points originated from the eight threes that he made.
