We won our 4th consecutive district title by defeating the Trinity Raiders 61-28 on Friday, Feb. 27th.
We got off to a rocky start and led 9-8 at the end of one quarter but a big second quarter propelled us to a 30-13 halftime lead. We got a big lift from our bench with Seth Bratcher making 2 3's in a row against Trinity's zone. We also got out in transition several times after forcing numerous turnovers. The second half went our way as well as we held Trinity to single digits in every quarter. The 28 points we gave up was a season low and one of our best defensive performances in a long time. Our rotations were quick and our ball pressure took Trinity out of their offense completely.
Wes Smith also return from his ankle injury and provided us with 12 big minutes off the bench. He had missed the previous 5 games.
Congrats to our seniors for never losing in the district tourney and being champions of the 12th district for the 4th time!!
