50! Lot’s going on last night but we’ll start with that number. That’s how many points Houston’s Kyle Poynter scored in the Tigers 65-62 loss to Willow Springs. That ties the all-time school scoring record. But Poynter was not able to get a game tying three to go in the final minutes to allow the Bears to leave Houston with the win. Five shots from behind the arc and a 19 for 20 performance from the free throw line highlight Poynter’s night.
Four conference championships got wrapped up also. In the marquee matchup, Nixa nipped Branson to win the COC Large and go to 25-1 on the season. Jordan Keeney lead the way with 24 points. Despite losing to Bolivar 72-69, Rogersville still claims the COC Small title via Marshfield’s 69-62 win over Reeds Spring. The Wolves would have claimed a share of the title with a victory. Hillcrest is the undisputed champion of the Ozark Conference with their 67-47 win over Marshfield. And Strafford claims the Mid-Lakes crown by downing Fair Grove 52-46.

A night of upsets on the boys side tonight. State ranked Dadeville is handed their first loss of the year by a very good Weaubleau squad 52-48 making Dadeville 21-1 on the season. And you’ve heard me talk a bit about Levi Cook. Well tonight he steps it up and drops 30 for the Pirates as they beat Spokane 66-65. Jordan Lair lead the Owls with 22.
On the girls side, both class 1 ranked area teams kept rolling as Verona romped over Wheaton 63-18, and Walnut Grove took a 61-52 win over a strong Morrisville team.

It’s a night for overtime on the boys side as three games see bonus basketball. Marshfield needs every one of Utah Findley’s 28 points and Jared Greenlee’s 24 to down Catholic 63-61 in OT. State ranked Spokane recovers from a furious Clever rally to win in extra period 66-60 behind Dylan Price’s 29 points. Fair Play continues their strong season with an extra period 69-61 win over Morrisville. And Pierce City and Lockwood enjoyed playing each other so much they decided to go two extra periods before the Eagles win 62-60.
One game that didn’t go into overtime may serve as the coming out party for one of the underrated boys players I mentioned earlier today. Richland’s Pat Poston scored 40 tonight as the Bears downed Macks Creek 105-78.

A huge contest in Verona tonight as the Lady Wildcats were looking to rebound from a loss to Clever against state-ranked Purdy who knocked off Miller last week. And rebound Verona did as they win the Ozark 7 matchup 61-56 behind the 23 points of Tristan Carrasquillo. Jessica Smith added 21 for Verona, while Shelby White led Purdy with 20.
On the boys side, Parkview gives a big shot in the arm to their Ozark Conference title hopes knocking off Joplin 51-48. And Houston rides Kyle Poynter’s 36 points to a 84-83 double overtime win over Mountain Grove. Poynter hit a 3 as the 4th quarter buzzer went off to send the game to overtime tied at 66. Then hit the game winner in double overtime for the Tigers.

Clever & Miller watch as Jeremy Dresslaer hits two of his 30 points
Saw a great early season game tonight in Miller as the Cardinals took on Clever. Clever was fresh off a championship in their own tournament while it was the first game of the season for Miller. The Cardinals jumped out to an 11-7 lead midway through the first period as Justin Jack hit two early 3-pointers. From there, Clever went on a 14-0 that extended into the second period. But now down 21-11, Miller responded with their own 8-0 run to get back in the game and they went to halftime with Clever leading 23-21. Miller had to feel good being down only 2 as they shot an abysmal 6 of 27 from the field in the first half.
