The boy’s went 2-4 in the first six games. They had wins against Lowry, a school from Nevada, and Summit Academy. They lost a close game in overtime to Mountain Ridge, Reno, Elko, and Stansbury. They are scoring 55.3 points per game including two games with 70 against Mt. Ridge and Lowry. They are giving up 64.1 points per game and only gave up 39 against Summit Academy.

Second leading scorer and leading rebounder is Nate Suaste. He scores 10.7 points per game and grabs eight rebounds per game. He has dropped 17 twice, against Mt. Ridge and Stansbury, and has pulled eight plus rebounds in every game but one including getting a double-double (10 or more of something in two categories ex. 10 points 10 rebounds) with 11 points, 10 rebounds to go along with three blocks against Lowry. Other top scorers include Darius Jackson with 9.8 including games of 17 and 15 as well as a game with seven blocks, Chase Wagstaff with 6.8 points and he also brings down 7.3 rebounds, he had 17 in a game against Summit Academy! Josh Harding also chips in six points a game.

The team has six games before they start region play. They play old region opponent Hillcrest, Roy, Providence Hall, Green Canyon, Mountain Crest, and Skyridge before starting region play January 9th at Granger. A good stretch of six games could put us in a good stop come region time.
