KUA comes out on top, beating Worcester Academy

The KUA Wildcats came away with a big Class AA road win today travelling down to Worcester Academy and walking out with a 75-61 win. In a hard fought and physical game KUA took a 5 point half time lead and built it up to 19 points with 6 minutes left in the game.  Worcester then battled back to cut the lead to 8 late in the half, but KUA survived at the foul line hitting 26 for 31 in the second half alone.  Garrett Turner, 15 for 18 from the free throw line, ended with a team high 18 points for the night.  Travis Valmon (14pts), Nate Knight (11pts), and Spencer Cline (10 pts) joined him in double figures.  Ugnius Zilinskas provided an offensive spark for KUA coming off the bench, hitting three from beyond the arc. KUA's record now stands at 15-10, 8-7 in Class AA, with games vs Vermont Academy and Proctor next week to finish out the regular season
