Nwoye's teammate <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2373251' first='Isiah' last='Ring']</strong> pulled down 14 rebounds to go with his 15 points in the same game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2439013' first='Cutter' last='Sisk']</strong> (Beech) did as [player_tooltip player_id='2439013' first='Cutter' last='Sisk'] do, completely owning the glass on both ends. Station Camp could not slow the man down. He also scored 24 points in the Beech victory.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2621353' first='Cole' last='Kizer']</strong>, a smaller guard, collected six rebounds in a win over rival Centennial High.

McMinn County did not get many second chances, and they did not score efficiently, so the defensive rebounding of Bradley Central hampered their effort.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Baylor School - Tri-Cities Christian Academy</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Though his team lost Ezra Sixto impressed another gymful with his bounce and activity around the lane.
