SHARE Hampshire tops Marmion to take 5th at DeKalb

​It took awhile for the shots to start dropping for Marmion and Hampshire Saturday in the fifth-place game at the 87th annual Chuck Dayton Tournament in DeKalb.

Hampshire didn’t get on the scoreboard until two-and-a-half minutes into the game when Drew Doran knocked down a 16-foot jumper.

The Cadets had even more problems, not getting a point until the 2:42 mark of the first quarter on a putback bucket from Jake Esp.

The lid eventually came off the basket for Hampshire. Marmion? Not so much.
