Trojans Fall at No. 18 Huntington

HUNTINGTON, Ind. – Taylor got a 10th double-double from Anton Webb and a career-high 16 points from Pete Combs but could not overcome a 45-point first half from No. 18 Huntington, as the Trojans suffered an 82-68 defeat.

Combs nailed five-of-six attempts in the opening half for 12 point and finished the night with a personal-best 16 points on seven-of-10 shooting and added six boards.

Webb continued his excellent production, erupting for 14 points and 10 rebounds in the second half to close with an 18-point, 13-board double-double. Webb's 18 points moved him to within 37 of reaching 1,000 points in his three years in a Taylor uniform.

Kaden Fuhrmann also stayed hot with 16 points and four assists, while Chaz Harvey posted 12 points.

Despite having four player reach double-figures in scoring, Taylor never threatened the host Huntington (14-4, 4-4 CL) squad, as the Foresters also put four in double-digits, drained 11 triples and led by double-figures for much of the contest.

Taylor (11-7, 4-4 CL) will close the first half of its league slate on Saturday, January 18 at 3:00 pm against No. 10 Bethel (15-3, 8-0 CL).
