2/16/10 Scores

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.
