Black Hawk 69, Highland 36
SOUTH WAYNE - Defense was a key factor in the Warriors' dominating victory over the Cardinals.
Chase Stietz, who held team high-scoring honors with Josh Meier with 15 points, drew the assignment to guard Highland's prolific Jon Ross Linscheid.
"Linscheid usually scores 26 or 27 points," Black Hawk coach Charlie Anderson said. "Chase did a really good job playing defense on the other team's best player, as well as playing good offense."
Linscheid finished with 20 points.
Black Hawk had a 27-15 lead by halftime and then scored 42 points in the second half.
Jett Rufenacht added 10 points for Black Hawk, and C.J. Leuzinger and Conner Meyer had eight apiece.
Black Hawk senior point guard Jacob Quinn had a career-high nine assists.
"In the second half, he contributed a lot by breaking their press with his ballhandling," Anderson said.
