<p>Webb’s first bucket of the second stanza came off the soft shooter’s hands of [player_tooltip player_id="1177021" first="Luke" last="Lentz"]. Coming off a turnover, Lentz exploded out in transition, receiving a key pass in his path. Though he missed a foul was drawn. Lentz scored again and again against a physical, keenly-aware defense.</p>
<p><strong>FINAL: Webb Knoxville 75-50 over CP.A.<br />
</strong>Halftime: Webb 40-30</p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1029090" first="Lukas" last="Walls"] (Knoxville Webb)</strong></p>
<p>[player_tooltip player_id="1029090" first="Lukas" last="Walls"] missed almost the entire first half with two fouls. He came out with a hunger to open the second half. Walls shot two of the team’s first three shots, missing both in reasonable fashion. He remained active though and earned his way to the free throw line over and over, ruining the Lion’s attempt at a comeback. Lukas must be amazing Saturday, when the Spartans face undefeated Brentwood Academy for a place in the State Tournament Semifinals.</p>
