"Our intent was to not run anything up, and we took steps to not disrespect our opponent," Gilmour coach Bob Beutel told Cleveland.com. "They went 0-for-28 from the field and 1-for-4 from the free-throw line. We let them shoot."
Maybe there's something to that. According to tweets from one Gilmour fan at the game, the halftime score was 72-1 -- making the second half a relatively modest 36-0 shutout.
