- 0:16by Everlett. You can't miss Reggie Chapman on the hardwood,
- 0:21especially since the ball is frequently in his hands. Newark
- 0:25didn't want to miss out on the chance of winning
- 0:27Tuesday's Little ten game at Indian Creek, and knew its
- 0:29best chance lied in Chapman's hands, so when officials spotted
- 0:33blood on Chapman's jersey with four to five fifty seven
- 0:36left to play, he simply swapped jerseys, going from number
- 0:39three to number twenty five after a break in the action.
- 0:42He then scored seven of his eighteen points in his
- 0:45replacement jersey to lead Newark to a fifty eight fifty
- 0:49five victory. I didn't even know who elbowed me, but
- 0:52I got blood right in my eye going for the ball,
- 0:54he said. I was trying to hide it. I wiped
- 0:57it on my shirt and they an official saw it.
- 1:00Newark coach Kyle Anderson called the time out to give
- 1:03Chapman time to get checked and switched jerseys out of
- 1:07the timeout Logan Schrader scored off a turnover to pull
- 1:10Indian Creek to within forty seven forty five. Chapman went
- 1:14right back to what he was doing while wearing number three,
- 1:17hitting a three from the top of the key to
- 1:19give Newark ten to six five, a fifty to forty
- 1:23five lead with three forty eight remaining. His Jelly a
- 1:27finger rolled layup off the glass with toomb forty five
- 1:30left made it fifty three forty eight. I love Jelly's,
- 1:35you know, English off the glass, he said. I've watched
- 1:37Kyrie Irving my whole life. I love him. I love
- 1:40making those layups, and it was just instinct at that point.
- 1:44Indian Creek twelve over south, you have a KEYD. Indian
- 1:47Creek twelve over south, you have a KEYD where solder is.

- 2:03Indian Creek twelve for two two two pulled within fifty
- 2:07five fifty three after Jason Brewer made the first of
- 2:10a pair of free throws with eighteen point three seconds remaining.
- 2:13He'd missed the second and Newark's Austin Ribal grabbed the
- 2:16rebound and got fouled. Reibal split two free throws with
- 2:21sixteen point two seconds left, leaving Schrader an opportunity for
- 2:25a game tying three, but it fell short. They fouled
- 2:28Rabel again with seven point six seconds left. Ribal may
- 2:32both seceal it at fifty eight to fifty three. It
- 2:36feels pretty good, Ribel said. It's a really good team
- 2:39that we came here to play, and we got to
- 2:41make a statement in one A that we deserve to
- 2:43be a higher seed. Reggie did a lot of not
- 2:46turning the ball over. Whenever the pressure would come, He'd
- 2:50always be fine with it. He ran our plays pretty well.
- 2:53We knocked down shots, We stopped a lot. Peyton Huber,
- 2:58who led the Timberwolves with fifteen points, skied for a
- 3:01tip in at the buzzer, but they were still a
- 3:04possession short. Schrader added twelve points for Indian Creek. That's
- 3:09a huge win. Anderson said, I think early in the
- 3:12season you look at that team as probably the best
- 3:15team in the conference, and obviously the goal is to
- 3:18try to win the conference. So to come out on
- 3:19the road against the team I think can make a
- 3:21run in the postseason. That's a huge one for us.
- 3:24Anderson didn't hesitate burning the time out when Chapman's jersey
- 3:28was bloodied. He's the leader and does so much. He
- 3:32has had to take on a role that is very hard,
- 3:35being kind of one of our leading scorers and the
- 3:37ball handling playmaker at the same time. Anderson said, and
- 3:40that team pressures you the entire time, so all game long.
- 3:44For him to control the game like he did and
- 3:46take care of the ball the way he did says
- 3:48a lot. And Chapman's turning it on at the right time.
- 3:52He's really been turning the corner and doing that lately,
- 3:55and we're going to need him to even do a
- 3:57lot more. Anderson said, I'm hoping some of our young
- 4:00guards get more aggressive and step up to take some
- 4:03of that off of him, But for now, he's burdening
- 4:06a lot of that, taking the burden for us, so
- 4:08those other guys can kind of finish on the fly
- 4:11and learn on the fly. The Norsemen are as well,
- 4:15after a rough showing over the holidays, taking fifteenth place
- 4:17at Plano's sixty second Christmas Classic. We needed a little
- 4:21bit of a come to Jesus moment. After the tournament,
- 4:23Anderson said, we played okay, We just let games slip
- 4:28and it's kind of a lack of effort and focus.
- 4:30So those ten days of practice were really good for us.
- 4:33We kind of reset ourselves. We had a good defensive
- 4:36effort last game, at a great defensive effort this game.
