Maybe tonight will finally wake up the rest of the state to what’s going on at Thomas Jefferson in Joplin. The Cavaliers go to Washburn and get revenge for their only loss of the season knocking of the #10 team in class 3, Southwest, by a final score of 48-41. The Cavaliers took a 9-0 lead, and ended the first period up 16-4. The lead would swell to 16 and then things got really bad. Trailing 23-9, the Trojans leading scorer Levi Roberts sprained and ankle and left the game for the rest of the half. At that point, Roberts had 8 of Southwest’s 9 points. Big trouble right? Not exactly. Josh Hartin scored 5 second quarter points and Josh Cutberth hit a big 3 as part of a 10-3 run to whittle the TJ lead down to 26-19 at the half. In the second half, 6 was the important number. That was as close as Southwest could get cutting the lead down to 6 on 5 separate occasions. But they couldn’t break through. Hartin scored 11 points in the half, but the TJ big men, Jordan Stauffer and Alex Oserowsky combined for 15 second half points, the Cavaliers controlled the pace of the game, and took care of the basketball against the Trojans pressure to hold off any comeback. Stauffer and Hartin tied for high game honors with 17 points each. TJ goes to 18-1 with the victory and secures a share of the Ozark 7 title with Southwest. BASKETBALL BOYS Varsity
Caught the Crane/Cassville boys game last night deep in Barry County. I wanted to get a first hand look at Crane’s high scoring guard Levi Cook, and see how and if the Cassville Wildcats were progressing under new coach TJ Dickenson. When the dust settled, Crane had themselves a 61-44 victory, Cook had 27 points, and the Wildcats have reason to hope. The game itself was entertaining. Cassville jumped out to a 7-2 lead only to see Crane reel off a 10-1 run and finish the first quarter up 12-8. Cassville stayed in the game though not letting Crane pull away until a 12-2 run in the third quarter game them some breathing room. Cook had 14 points in the first half, and 13 in the second, most of them answering each Cassville attempt to get back in the game. And they wouldn’t as the Pirates outscored them in each quarter to get the win. It was a good night to be a Lady Eagle. The Nixa girls get their revenge in round 2 as they defeat archrival Ozark 45-38. Bri Anton led all scorers with 18 but Nixa makes a 9 point lead entering the fourth quarter stand up. Aly Stock & Abby Bracker each had 12 for the Lady Eagles. And Fair Grove again shows balanced scoring with 5 players going for 8 or more to down Hillcrest 69-56. Mollie Gavin had 19 for Fair Grove to lead all scorers. BASKETBALL |
