Bloomington hands Boylan second loss of season

ROCKFORD -- Sophomore guard Patrick Fisher scored 21 and junior Charles Payton 17 points as Bloomington handed Boylan just its second loss of the season, 63-56.

Boylan hit five three-point shots in the first half and held a 34-33 lead at the intermission. The Purple Raiders though extended its defense and used its superior size to put Boylan in foul trouble in the final two quarters.

Bloomington ended up hitting 18 of 23 free throws, while Boylan was nine for 11. Payton, a 6-6 junior being recruited by colleges such as Southern Illinois and Illinois-Chicago, ended up hitting nine of 12 from the line. Dazon Farris added 10 for Bloomington.

Zach Couper led the Titans with 18 points, but 14 came in the first half. Sam Fehrle added 11.
