Hot Start Carries Spartans to Fourth Straight Victory

The Spartans rode a wave of torrid three-point shooting in the first quarter to a 60-48 victory over Westbury at Scarborough's campus gym.  The Spartans held a 26-8 lead after one quarter of play thanks in large part to six of nine shooting from behind the arc.

After the first quarter, the short-handed Huskies battled to make it a game.  Despite only having five players available the entire second half due to an injury, Westbury cut the lead to four points midway through the fourth period. However, a clutch three-pointer by Scarborough's Jorge Martinez with about 3:30 left in the game pushed the Spartan lead back to 10 and sealed the outcome.

Hunter Janacek led the Spartans with 20 points.  Quinton Hudson contributed 11 and Jorge Martinez hit three three-pointers for nine points.

The Spartans (4-0) are off until next Tuesday, December 2, when they play at Houston Austin. Game time is 6:00 pm.
