(January 3, 2020) &#8211; The Fort Wayne Mad Ants overcame a 19-point deficit to defeat the Capital City Go-Go, 128-126, at the Entertainment and Sports Arena on Friday night. Fort Wayne (9-11) has now won seven of the last nine games heading into tomorrow night&#8217;s back-to-back finale at Canton.<\/p>\n<p>Fort Wayne trailed 37-18 with 1:56 remaining in the first quarter after a Jalen Jones free throw. The Mad Ants would cut the deficit to nine during the second quarter, but went into the halftime break trailing 63-52.<\/p>\n<p>After failing to regain momentum in the third quarter, Fort Wayne found all the rhythm needed to complete the comeback in the fourth quarter. The Mad Ants shot 12-of-17 from the floor and 11-of-13 from the charity stripe in the highest-scoring quarter of the season as a team, outscoring Capital City 42-29 in the final frame.<\/p>\n<p>Walt Lemon, Jr. and C.J. Wilcox combined to go 10-of-11 from the free throw line and scored 11 points each in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Lemon ended the night with 28 points and Wilcox capped his night with 15 points.<\/p>\n<p>JaKeenan Gant poured in a career-high 27 points in his first starting nod of his career as well. Gant finished 11-of-19 shooting and grabbed seven rebounds in 29 minutes of action.<\/p>\n<p>Ben Moore chipped in another double-double highlighted by 15 points and 12 rebounds. Tre Kelley, who was waived by Capital City on Nov. 5, added eight points off the bench from Fort Wayne.<\/p>\n<p>Stephan Hicks led all bench scorers with 12 points.<\/p>\n<p>For Capital City (9-10), Mike Cobbins led all scorers with 29 points as four from the Go-Go ended the night with at least 20 points.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/docs\/Mad_Ants\/2020_01_03_Mad_Ants_scorers_book.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Download the official Scorer&#8217;s Report<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/2007-trf\/24844.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"The Mad Ants at Headwaters Park East and the Three Rivers Festival.
