GBB: Tri-West advances to sectional final with victory over Cloverdale

Posted on 14 February 2009 by .

 

It was never easy, but it was always in control. That is the
story of tri-West’s sectional semi-final win over Cloverdale. The Bruins took a
6-4 lead after two minutes of play and never relinquished it the remainder of
the night. The result was a 54-48 victory over a gallant Cloverdale squad.

 

The Bruins survived poor first half shooting by shutting
down Cloverdale on the defensive end. They took a 22-16 lead to intermission.
The third quarter was a different story. Tri-West started quickly and stretched
the lead to 11 at 34-23. Cloverdale would not allow it to ever grow larger, but
it was too big a mountain for the Clovers to climb. Clutch free throw shooting
in the fourth quarter iced the verdict for Tri-West.

 

The Bruins were led by the 20 points of Sam Ricks. Cloverdale
got a game high 22 points from Elizabeth Cheatham. The talented Clover post
player missed much of the season, but was outstanding in the losing effort.

Three
Sagamore Conference wrestlers claimed regional championships Saturday. The trio
was part of 16 wrestlers from SAC schools who qualified for semi-state
competition next Saturday The champions include Southmont’s Nick Hodges who won
the 189 lb. class at the North Montgomery Regional. That is, of course, no
surprise. Hodges is one of the favorites for the state title at that weight. He
was joined on the top step of the awards platform by Josh Julian of Lebanon who
won the 112 lb. weight class. At Mooresville, Ryan Kolb of Tri-West won the 152

Sagamore schools. Both the Mounties and Tigers advanced four wrestlers to next
