The Panther =93Basketball Express=94 left the station prior to = Thanksgiving and=20 continues to rumble down the track unabated. Tuesday evening=92s 54-49 = road win at=20 Alton was the seventh in succession for Coach Rick Gibson=92s charges, = following=20 the dismantling of both Granite City and Centralia last weekend in the = Panther=20 Dome.
Although the Southwestern Conference match-up in Alton appeared to = slow the=20 OTHS offensive juggernaut, the results were what Gibson was hoping = for.
"We told our kids that the game against Alton was crucial at this = point in=20 the season," Gibson said. "Teams need to be able to win at home and = squeeze out=20 enough victories on the road in conference play to be contenders. We = were able=20 to do that Tuesday night. The conference has so many good teams that is=20 imperative to steal a game or two away from home.

"We battled a good team and were able to do enough things right down = the=20 stretch to come away with the victory. Alton had four wins coming into = the game=20 and had played East St. Louis close in their last outing (58-51), so we = knew=20 that they would be ready for us."
Fortunately for the Panthers, the Redbirds may have been ready but = their=20 shooters were not. O'Fallon benefited from Alton=92s cold shooting = throughout the=20 game.
The visitors were able to convert on only 32 percent of their shots = for the=20 game and a dismal 17.8 (5 for 28) from beyond the 3-point arc. Alton=92s = three=20 senior starters, who took the bulk of the shots, could not find the = bucket,=20 combining for just three baskets in 23 attempts.
O=92Fallon did not suffer from the same malady. Led by junior = Roosevelt Jones,=20 who topped the Panthers with 21 points, the OTHS hoopsters managed a = slim 9-7=20 advantage at the end of the first quarter and filed into the locker room = with a=20 25-24 lead at halftime. Alton=92s defensive effort was a much different = story than=20 their persistent offensive woes throughout the game.
"Alton did a very good job against us on the defensive end," Gibson = said.=20 "They were able to disrupt things with their quickness and force us to = make some=20 bad decisions which they converted into points."
With the score still close at the end of the third quarter (39-36 in = favor of=20 the Panthers), O=92Fallon used a seven point flurry at the start of the = fourth=20 period to put enough distance between themselves and their SWC rivals to = help=20 seal the victory. Baskets by Jones and Chevaugn Lawrence helped ignite = the=20 mini-surge and give the Panthers a 46-36 lead with 6:04 remaining in the = game.
Alton did not go down without a fight, however. Once the Panthers had = increased their lead to double digits, the Redbirds turned up the = pressure in=20 the full court with immediate =97 and almost disastrous =97 results for = O=92Fallon.=20 Two three point plays and a steal and layup sliced the 10-point lead to = just two=20 (46-44) with 4:10 left on the fourth quarter clock. With the game = hanging in the=20 balance, Jones stepped up to bail out the Panthers, scoring four of the = team=92s=20 next eight points down the stretch to collect the 54-49 victory.
The weekend=92s court action did not the dramatic flair that was part = of the=20 triumph over Alton on Tuesday. Thanks to a liberal dose of hot shooting = and=20 devastating defensive pressure applied by the Panthers on their home = court, they=20 were able to steamroll past both Granite City 78-43 and Centralia 74-40 = for=20 victories number five and six on the season.
As indicated by the final scores in both games, O=92Fallon had little = trouble=20 taking control of the games on both ends of the floor. Against = Granite City=20 in the league opener for both teams, the Panthers depth and offensive = prowess=20 proved too much for the Warriors.
Roosevelt Jones led the scoring with 17 points, but he had plenty of = help=20 from Elijah Kinmon (13), Josh Buie (12), Chevaughn Lawrence (12) and = Alex=20 Mayfield (11) as the Panthers shook off some first home game jitters and = powered=20 their way to the lopsided victory. Defensively, O=92Fallon forced = 14 first=20 half turnovers by the Warriors, another weapon that the local squad used = to=20 their advantage.
"We really didn=92t shoot the ball well in the early stages of the = game, but=20 our defensive effort didn=92t suffer from it," Gibson said. "Once our = kids got=20 going in the open court, I think they relaxed a little more which = improved our=20 overall shooting."
That recipe for success was duplicated on Saturday night when the = Panthers=20 hosted the Centralia Orphans. Traditionally, the South Seven school has = been a=20 worthy adversary for O=92Fallon, but this time around the Panthers had = no=20 difficulty sending the Orphans packing. Roosevelt Jones, continuing his = MVP type=20 performances which began in the Tournament of Champions, exploded for 31 = points=20 to spearhead O=92Fallon=92s demolition of the Orphans.
Pressuring Centralia from the opening tip, the OTHS squad sprinted to = a 21-9=20 advantage by the end of the first quarter and didn=92t slow their pace = perceptibly=20 until the fourth period. The 12-point first quarter lead ballooned to = 40-15 by=20 halftime, and the game, for all intents and purposes, was over. Gibson = continued=20 to rotate ten players into the game, and each performed well, = maintaining the=20 lead over Centralia until the final buzzer.
This weekend the OTHS squad will face another road challenge when = they travel=20 to Collinsville to battle the Kahoks, an improved squad from last year = who=20 narrowly lost to East St. Louis 57-54 in overtime Tuesday night. =
