Mad Ants overcome slow start to beat Capital City<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

(January 13, 2020) – The Fort Wayne Mad Ants defeated the Capital City Go-Go, 113-105, at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum on Monday night. The loss snapped a three-game losing streak thanks to the scoring efforts from Walt Lemon Jr. and Daxter Miles Jr.<\/p>\n

Lemon ended the night with 25 points, nine rebounds and seven assists. He is now one point shy of reaching 2,000 points in his Mad Ant-regular season career.<\/p>\n

In his second game since being traded from Northern Arizona, Miles led all bench scorers with 21 points in more than 32 minutes of action. <\/p>\n

Both teams overcame a slow start, which yielded an 18-18 tie after the first quarter and Fort Wayne (10-14) would take a 48-47 lead in the locker room.<\/p>\n

Neither team led by double digits all night and Fort Wayne built its largest lead of the night at 68-59 with 4:26 left in the third quarter.<\/p>\n

Capital City (10-13) regained the lead momentarily during the final quarter until a Ben Moore putback with 7:54 left in the game saw Fort Wayne regain control the rest of the way.<\/p>\n

Moore tallied a career-high 20 rebounds to go along with 17 points, four blocked shots and three assists. <\/p>\n

Capital City was paced by 24 points from Admiral Schofield, who was on assignment from the Washington Wizards, for his seventh 20-point performance this season. <\/p>\n

Jalen Jones added 19 points and nine rebounds for the Go-Go.<\/p>\n

The Mad Ants outrebounded Capital City 66-53 on the night. Fort Wayne’s 66 rebounds were good for the second most rebounds collected in a regular season game in franchise history.<\/p>\n

Fort Wayne heads east to take on Long Island on Wednesday night, while Capital City will host Raptors 905 on Wednesday as well.<\/p>\n

The Mad Ants are back at home on Friday against Greensboro.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
