HUNTINGTON - Warsaw boys basketball coach Al Rhodes said he wanted to make things rough for Huntington North's Sean Kline Thursday. In a 68-60 Warsaw win in overtime, the Tigers did just that. Kline scored 17 points and pulled down 11 rebounds but fouled out with 3:35 remaing in the fourth quarter.With Kline on the bench, 6-foot-4 Tiger senior Josh Buck took control of the game. Buck scored five points in the last 3:35 of the fourth and then six in the overtime, including the game's final four points. "Josh Buck has always played well against Kline," Rhodes said."If he (Kline) was near the basket, we wanted all the help we could get." Rhodes said he moved 6-7 senior Paul Finnegan to the outside to open up the middle for Buck and Greg Clay.His plan worked. Finnegan scored 10 points in the first quarter and finished with a career-high 19.Buck led all scorers with 26, while Clay added 14.
