Worth County’s boys got their third straight win, getting a 71-48 win over King City. Tyler New had his usual output with 20 points and 10 assists, but it was Caleb New who added 18 for the Tigers as they were able to cool down a red hot Wildkat squad. Karson Briner was lights out on the boards for the Tigers, getting 12 for them.
At first, it was King City coming out on fire, with Graham
Medsker scoring the first five points for them. Jonathan Garlock scored two
free throws and Collin Potter scored backdoor as they continued to maintain a
lead as the quarter progressed as Worth County started off ice cold. But as the
game progressed, Worth County managed to impose their will on the game, running
up and down the floor and getting good transition looks. Tyler New was pushing
it up the floor at will and getting it to the open guy, and sure enough, the
shots started to fall.
Bo Collins got loose in transition, Cannon Fletcher got it
to Hayden Sanders for three, and then Cole Ruby got another to put the Tigers
in front 13-9. Ryder Sample countered with a free throw, but then Tyler New
scored off a drive, Hayden Sanders took a charge, and Cannon Fletcher hit a
3-pointer after a pass from Tyler New to make it 18-10.
Ryder Sample’s steal cut it to 23-16 after one, but Worth
County had seven different players get in the scoring column that period, which
boded well for the rest of the game.
The deciding sequence came at the start of the second
quarter, when back to back jacks from Caleb New sparked a 16-3 run in the
second quarter for the Tigers. Tyler New went coast to coast and scored,
prompting a King City timeout with Worth County leading 31-16.
Out of the timeout, Jonathan Garlock hit a 3-pointer to cut
the King City deficit to 31-19, and King City faceguarded Tyler New with Graham
Medsker the rest of the way. It took the Tigers a couple of minutes to adjust,
but then Karson Briner stripped Brady Armfield of a defensive board and converted
to spark the Tigers again. Tyler New hit Hayden Sanders for three, and then
Caleb New turned a steal into a three point play to make it 39-19. Sample got
the hot hand late with Tyler New in foul trouble to cut it to 39-24, but the
damage was done.
After running up and down the floor all half, the teams were
winded for the third quarter, with the scoring dropping off. Caleb New hit two
3-pointers and Cannon Fletcher added another and took a charge on defense as
the Tigers slowly built it back up to 50-30 before Darwin Bowden hit a
halfcourt three at the third quarter buzzer to cut it to 50-33.
Brody Wall’s triple cut it to 50-36 to start the fourth, but
then Tyler New got untracked with a three point play after driving and Karson
Briner hit Bo Collins inside to make it 55-36 as the lid started to come off the
basket for the Tigers in the fourth. Worth County lost track of Bowden
underneath the basket, but then Cole Ruby hit a 3-pointer and Tyler New scored
off a drive to make it 60-38, as his drives were either setting up other
players or leading to layups in the period.
King City continued to hang around as Collin Potter’s drive
cut it to 65-46 with 2:12 left, but then four straight from Tyler New finished
it and prompted wholesale substitutions.
