Gametime - The ABA expansion Lima Explosion defeated the Gem City Hall of Famers by a score 115-76 in the 2011/2012 season opener. Ohio Northern product Kyle Meyer led Lima with 21 points followed closely by former Mr. Ohio Basketball and Ohio State Buckeye Jamar Butler and his 19 points.
The game was originally scheduled to take place in Dayton, home of Gem City Hall of Famers, but they failed to secure a venue in adequate time for the contest. Working on short notice, organizers planned the event to be played in Lima at Lima Catholic Central HS, giving local fans a chance to see their team in the club's first ever game (The Explosion's regular home venue is Elida Fieldhouse in Lima).
