Late Buckets From Crawford And Jacobsen Help Seal The Win for Brewster

Nojus Indrusaitis Nojus Indrusaitis 6'5" | SG Brewster Academy | 2024 State #79 Nation NLG started hot for Brewster, hitting two threes in the first two possessions of the game.

The two traded several early shots and Wasatch led 37-35 at halftime with 16 points from Indrusaitis and 13 points from Brown. Brewster opened the third quarter with an 11-2 run getting two more threes from Indrusaitis, but the shots started falling for John Mobley Jr later in the third quarter sparking a 9-0 for Wasatch to retake a lead.

Lion Comeback Falls Short To AZ Compass Prep
Legacy Early College had some early struggles with taking care of the ball without Point Guard JJ Rembert JJ Rembert 5'11" | PG Nation Ford | 2024 State SC , and AZ Compass Prep used those struggles to separate early with an 8-0 run – 6 of them coming from Sammie Yeanay Sammie Yeanay 6'7" | PF AZ Compass Prep | 2024 State #98 Nation AZ . Despite the turnover struggles, Legacy did a great job of controlling the glass. Despite not having his best shooting game, Travelle Bryson Travelle Bryson 6'5" | SF Legacy Early College | 2024 State SC was a large part of that area for the Lions with 7 rebounds. Vyctorius Miller‘s offensive prowess was a key factor in AZ Compass’ first half, knocking down his 3rd three in as many attempts midway through the second quarter. The Lions slowly started to turn their offense around in the third quarter, but their defense in the quarter allowed them to make the contest very interesting late. They held the Dragons without a field goal for the first five minutes of the quarter, cutting the lead down to one on a Terry Copeland Terry Copeland 6'8" | PF Legacy Early College | 2024 State SC And-1 putback. Copeland was dominant in the second half for Legacy and Kyelin King Kyelin King 6'4" | SF Legacy Early College | 2024 State SC hit some important shots as well.
