OPEN DATE: 62

The Cowboys traveled over to Western Guilford for the Piedmont Triad 3A Conference semifinals. The Cowboys squared off against the Parkland Mustangs. The Cowboys swept the regular season series in convincing fashion and hoped to stay perfect as post season play begins. The Mustangs took care of Western Guilford in the opening round last night, and were hoping to add a big win for their State playoff resumé. The Mustangs came out with a strong upset mentality and used that as well as took advantage of a sloppy and ice cold Cowboys squad. The teams traded baskets the entire frame, with Parkland nailing a three pointer in the closing seconds to take a 17-14 lead as the ugly frame closed. The physical and messy play continued into the second frame as neither team really played good ball. The teams once again traded baskets, this time it was the Cowboys that hit a late three pointer that took the halftime score to 30-30. After a discussion about sticking to the game plan, the Cowboys started to get a little momentum. A steal and point right off of the inbounds to start the second half started to warm the Cowboys. Another stop and score made it 33-30. Parkland stalled the Cowboys momentum and got up 35-33. The teams continued to trade baskets until a pair of free throws by the Mustangs tied the game at 39-39 with 4:12 to go. From there the Cowboys finally settled down on both sides of the ball and ended the frame on a 12-1 run, holding the Mustangs scoreless for over 4 minutes. A lone free throw by Parkland stopped the run and the frame closed at 51-40. The final stanza had the Cowboys playing the accordion. The lead would get up, then the Mustangs would battle it back down to 5. Southwest would start pulling away again, and get the margin back to 13, but the Mustangs wouldn’t go quietly. In the end the Cowboys made enough plays on both sides of the ball to hold on in the ugly game for a 73-62 win. The Mustangs were led by Omari Bolden with 15 points. Southwest was led by; Christian Martin with (23, 7 Rebs, 3 Stls, 3 Asts), Keyshaun Langley with (18, 7 Rebs, 3 Asts, 2 Stls, Blk), and Cam Thompson with (10, 2 Asts, Stl). Despite the ugly win, the Cowboys remain unbeaten and advance to play in the Piedmont Triad 3A Conference Tournament Championship game on Friday night.
