For the first time in 2018’s The Basketball Tournament, Team Fredette didn’t suffer from a slow start.
It came at a good time, as a balanced effort helped Team Fredette cruise past Scarlet & Gray 100-78 in TBT quarterfinals action Sunday at Georgia State’s University Sports Arena, punching its ticket in the semifinals of the annual $2 million winner-take-all event.
Team Fredette, the No. 2 seed in the Midwest Regional, controlled the action much of the game and used a 14-4 run to start the fourth quarter to hand regional top seed Scarlet & Gray, a team comprised mainly of former Ohio State players, a lopsided loss.
