Points – Keaton Ringley- 13 points,

Matt Bauer: Key Moment – After missing his first three open looks on 3 pointers, Dylan LaGrow did what shooters do. He kept shooting. He finally connected on his first 3 with about 2 minutes left in the first quarter. After about half way through the 2nd quarter, he had connected on 5 straight.

I like the way we played in the 2nd half tonight. We got the ball into the heart of Valley’s defense with post entry passes and off the drive. That set up a lot of easy baskets and open looks. Max Dinninger and Espin Miller had really good games off of the bench.

Next Game – District finals against Reese at 3:00 PM on Saturday 3/27
