Piedmont, Okla. -- We
have all heard it before. An ugly win is still a win and indeed
that is the case for the two time defending 5A state champions
as they held off the Piedmont Wildcats 40-35 inside the Colette
Fieldhouse.
The first quarter score appeared to be a
great game on the baseball diamond between the two schools, but
not so much on the hardwood as the Jays managed just three
points and trailed 6-3.
Guthrie was not a whole lot better in the second quarter and
thank goodness for Caleb Murillo. Murillo scored all eight of
the Jays points to give the Jays a slim 11-10 halftime lead.
Murillo was named as the Farmers and Merchants Bank Player of the Game as he
finished with 9 points.
The first half saw the two teams combine for 23 turnovers and 21 points.
The Jays picked it up more so in the third quarter with 12 total points and
started the quarter on a 5-0 run in the first 3:30.
Guthrie built up to a 10 point lead, 21-11, with 3:18 left in the third, but the
Wildcats were sparked by a Guthrie technical foul and would go on a 9-2 run over
the last 2:54 of the quarter to make it a 23-20 game after three quarters.
Junior guard Kentrell Brothers scored all 14 of his points in the second half
after picking up two fouls in the first quarter and not having played in the
second.
Piedmont hit one of two from the free throw line to pull with two, 23-21, to
start the fourth quarter, but could get any closer as the Jays built a lead as
much of 9 points.

on their home floor in January. Listen to the game on 105.1 FM, or Guthrie
