The Wildcats opened up a 13-3 lead in the first 4 minutes of the game with aggressive defense and great ball movement on offense. The rest of the first half stayed even as Millard West took a 33-21 lead into halftime. The Wildcats were able to increase their lead to 15 going into the 4th, but within the first 2 minutes of the 4th, the lead was down to 7. After a timeout, the team calmed down and the Gators did not get any closer. Leading scorers were Gavin Miller (15), Jameson Malik (13), Gavin Olsen (12), and Jacob Morrison (10). The "dirty" work was led by Josh Fabrikant and Jack O'Neill. Josh led the team in rebounds and Jack continued to get the 50/50 balls with floor burns. With the win, the JV boys improve their record to 8-2.
