This past weekend, the Marathon Olympians came back from Friday night's rough outing against Seton Catholic with a big 52-41 win against Windsor at the STOP-DWI Winter Classic tournament.
Marathon senior guard, Diego Castellot led the Olympians with 18-points and 7 rebounds. Following was senior forward, Andrew Tillotson who finished the game with 16-points, 8 boards and 3 assists. Owen Hoyt led Marathon with 6 assists.
The game was close in the first quarter with Marathon leading 17-14 and with four of Windsor's starting five scoring.
Windsor's Jack Beatie played a good game scoring a total of 14-points throughout the game while grabbing 8 boards for the Knights.
The Knights were within 6-points going into the fourth quarter (43-37), but the Olympians played great team defense from both their starters and subs to close out the game on a 9-4 run.
Castellot helped secure the win with two big 3 pointers late in the fourth.
Both Castellot (Marathon) and Beatie (Windsor) were named to the all tournament team.
