GRANT HIGH SCHOOL: 49
It was a back and forth contest for sure. We jumped out to a 9 point lead in the first half, but Grant made a run in the second quarter and took a two point lead into halftime. We fell behind by as many as eight in the fourth quarter but battled back for a hard fought victory. We definitely had a lot of nervous energy in the first half which resulted in a lot of turnovers. We were able to settle down in the second half and played much better. Grant hit some tough shots, but Jordon McDonald took over the game and just would not let us lose. He ended up with 25 points and a season high 20 rebounds. We had other guys who also stepped up and made winning plays. Chaz Miller hit a couple of big three's and made three clutch free throws, part of his18 point night. Ben Mellema also made two big free throws down the stretch. Gavin Richards had a huge offensive rebound on a missed free throw and had a big steal late in the game. We didn't play our best game, but I'm proud of the kids for battling and finding a way to win! We play in the district final on Friday at 7:00 at Comstock Park.
