Leyton McGovern – Courtside Indiana https://courtsideindiana.com The best seats in the house Tue, 09 Feb 2021 15:36:06 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.0.2 POTW: Week of February 1-February 6 https://courtsideindiana.com/players/potw-week-of-february-1-february-6/ Tue, 09 Feb 2021 15:36:06 +0000 https://www.courtsideindiana.com/?p=2129 While they aren't the juggernaut they seemed to be last year, South Decatur is rounding into form.  They have upped their schedule a bit for this season, taking some lumps along the way, but this all prepares them for March and sectional title defense and a likely rematch with South Ripley along the way.

Leading the way for them?  It's still Lane Lauderbaugh.  The 6'6" senior forward put up monster numbers as a junior, and he has kept up that pace this season.  In a loss to Columbus North, Lauderbaugh put up 23 points with 8 rebounds and 2 assists.  His week was just getting going.  In wins over county rival North Decatur and 4A opponent Columbus East, Lauderbaugh torched them with 40 points and 49 points respectively.  He also 22 total rebounds over the weekend.  

Not a bad week.  His effort makes Lane Lauderbaugh the Courtside Indiana Player of the Week for the Week of February 1-February 6.

Top Considerations

Lowell's Chris Mantis is often in this section of the POTW, winning it a couple of times over the last two seasons.  27 points vs. Munster is a heck of a game, but what this also did was push the 6'7" senior guard into the Lowell record books.  Mantis became Lowell's all-time leading scorer, eclipsing a 32 year old record of 1,716 points.  Mantis is at 1,728 and still counting.

Leyton McGovern was impressive over the weekend in McCutcheon's two big wins.  The better numbers were in the win over Richmond, 32 points and 19 rebounds.  The 24 points, 11 rebounds and 8 assists in the win over Lafayette Jeff were all the more impressive, as the Mavericks knocked off their uptown rival.

Scoring 21 points with 10 rebounds and 3 assists, Brady Hunt led Delta to a narrow win over Greenfield Central.  What the 6'6" senior forward did vs. Mississinewa was darn near literally, competitively speaking of course, put his team on his back.  Down 12 at half, Hunt scored 24 consecutive points for Delta.  That's 24 points in a row.  He finished with 29 points (11-16 FG, 6-6 FT) with 8 rebounds and 3 assists.  Hunt is 4th on Delta's all-time scoring list. 

Despite the loss to Kokomo on Saturday, Tipton's Mylan Swan came through with a career effort, finishing with 39 points on the evening.  The 6'0" senior guard also added 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals.
