HALIFAX, N.S. – The UIndy men's basketball team wrapped up its foreign tour on Wednesday evening with a 91-72 victory over an All-Star team comprised of players from Nova Scotia.
 
No official stats were kept during the contest.
 
The Greyhounds upped their game after a sluggish first quarter, outscoring the All-Stars over the next 20 minutes, 54-35. Late 3-pointers from Jesse Bingham and Paul Zilinskas stretched the UIndy lead to a game-high 23 with under five minutes remaining.
 
Zilinskas, who most likely led the team in scoring with quite a few buckets, showed a toughness down the stretch as the game became a little rough. UIndy cleaned up the glass, with hometown player Josiah Tynes seemingly securing each opponent miss when he saw the floor.
 
David Ejah kept the momentum alive after the third quarter with a buzzer-beating 3-pointer right in front of the All-Star bench. It was cool.
 
The program will host a free kids clinic on Thursday morning from 10:30 a.m. until 12 p.m. local time at the North Preston Community Centre. A short recap with a statement from Josiah will be published following the conclusion of the camp.

Now hear from junior Zac Szul:

"We made a trip to Acadia University for our second game of our Canadian Tour and it was definitely an experience. As we walked out on to the court we were welcomed with another packed house. The atmosphere was electric, I have never been in an atmosphere quite like that in my college career. We had a slow start and faced some early adversity but we started to get a lid going in the third. Despite our efforts the crowd would just not go away, at times it was hard to hear Coach Corsaro when he was standing a foot away from me in the huddle. Down the stretch of the fourth Acadia benefited from the energy of the arena and got the upper hand. After a hard fought battle Acadia continue to have great hospitality supplying us with road meals for the drive back to the hotel.

On Wednesday we had an early wake up for breakfast and our morning workouts and stretch. Once we completed our workouts we had a team meeting and Coach Corsaro gave us the day to ourselves to rest and enjoy some of what Nova Scotia had to offer. Some guys went to see the new Megaladon movie, while others stayed in the hotel to swim or rest and recover. I decided to take advantage of the pool and the indoor slide. After enjoying the pool, as a team we went to Quiznos, a restaurant that I have never heard of, and it was delicious. I wish they had it in Toledo. After getting our pregame meal we got some more down time to prepare for our game and get taped for the trip over the Dalplex Arena, where we played Monday. Today would be one of our bigger tests coming off a tough lose and facing a talented opponent in the Canadian All Stars. Again the Dalplex Arena was full. Canada really loves its basketball and the support was outstanding. We really bounced back today, as a team we started playing some textbook Greyhound basketball and we jumped out to an early lead. As the game went on we maintained the lead and continued to stretch the margin into the fourth. We completed our effort with a 19 point win 91-72. It felt great to play a complete game and send Josiah off with a hometown win the UIndy way."
