First HCC win of the season for Noblesville... Millers win wild game with Flashes By RICHIE HALL NOBLESVILLE - The Noblesville boys basketball team’s first Hoosier Crossroads Conference win of the season might also be the Millers’ most memora- ble game of the year. Noblesville held off Franklin Cen- tral 53-52 Friday night at The Mill. It was a back and forth contest most of the way; the Millers took a big lead midway through the fourth quarter, then weath- ered the storm of a huge Flashes come- back to get the victory. Noblesville led 50-39 at midway through the fourth quarter, going on a 14-2 run that started at the end of the third when E.J. Smith made a putback to get the Millers ahead 38-37. Noblesville nev- er trailed after that. The Millers rolled into the fourth pe- riod with baskets from Noah Harris and Alex Hunt, then scored eight unanswered points to take their 11-point lead. Smith made a layin, then Hunt immediately got fouled on a rebound basket attempt and hit two free throws. Seconds later, Hunt scored on a tipback, then two more foul shots. Franklin Central finished the game on a 13-3 run, pouring in nine of those points in a span of two minutes.
