HIGH POINT CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL: 86
The Cowboys hosted the Bison of High Point Central tonight here at the Ranch. Southwest continued their dominance of this city and former conference rivalry in the last meeting earlier this season for their 14th consecutive win against the Bison. Southwest hoped to continue that trend tonight. The Bison are currently on a 4 game skid, while the Cowboys are coming off a win over Ragsdale Friday night. These teams are wanting to head into the holiday break on a positive note, and the Cowboys wanted a 15th straight over Central. From the tip it became obvious that the only thing that showed up for Southwest was their home uniforms. The Bison dictated and controlled the game. They played with more emotion, desire, efficiency, and heart than Southwest did at any point. The Bison held a slim 18-17 lead after the opening frame. It was back and forth for the second quarter despite the extremely sloppy play of the home team and the score was tied at 35 apiece going into the break. From there the sloppy play and lack of discipline and execution became even more apparent as the Bison took full advantage of all of the home team's miscues to the tune of an 86-76 victory, The Bison were led by Dhieu Deing with 34 points. Southwest was led by Jayden Turner with (23, 6 Rebs), and Christian Martin with (13, 6 Rebs, 3 Stls).
