Tumwater stayed perfect in EvCo play on Thursday, topping W.F. West 52-36 on the road to pick up its sixth straight league victory.
The T-Birds defense led the way early, as they limited the Bearcats to just seven points in the first, and the offense did enough to build a nine-point lead entering the fourth.
In the fourth, the defense came through with another big frame, limiting W.F. West to just six points to seal the win.
Luke Overbay was incredible on the boards, as he tallied 22 rebounds in the victory. It’s the third-most rebounds in a single game in Tumwater history. He also added eight points and three assists.
Julian Balsley scored a team-high 12 points for Tumwater, and both Landon Anchors and Jake Reid scored nine. Tyler Johnson and Owen Reamer added five apiece.
Hayden Rooney led the Bearcats with 13 points, while Fox Rogerson added eight and Blake Hampton scored six.
Tumwater (14-1, 6-0 2A EvCo) has now won 13 games in a row, and the T-Birds will look to make it 14 on Monday at White River. W.F. West (5-11, 2-4 2A EvCo) will look to bounce back at home on Tuesday against Black Hills.
