Greenwood 49, Edmonson County 25
#1
The Gators were never threatened, scoring the first 12 points of the contest and coasting from there.
“I couldn’t think of a better way to end my regular season at home,” said Wes Johnson, one of six Greenwood seniors honored before the game. “This was a big win, our 20th win, and that means a lot to us. We really played well as a team.”
Johnson hit three first-quarter 3s to help the Gators build a 20-2 lead.
Greenwood (20-8) went cold in the second period, but Edmonson County was unable to take advantage and trailed 26-11 at halftime.
The Gators erased any hopes of a comeback late in the third quarter when Nick Smith’s 3 started an 8-0 run that made the score 40-17. The Wildcats failed to get closer than 18 points in the final quarter.
“We wanted to control the tempo tonight,” Greenwood coach Jason Stonebraker said. “Edmonson County doesn’t play extremely fast where they would get us out of our normal tempo. What we’ll see Thursday with Warren Central (in the District 14 Tournament) will be a different beast. We’ve got to really understand that our defense is really going to be key.”
Johnson led the way for the Gators with 24 points. No other Greenwood player scored more than five points.
Matt Caudill had eight points to lead Edmonson County (9-18).
The Wildcats will meet Butler County in the District 12 Tournament at Grayson County at 7:45 p.m. Tuesday. Greenwood will face Warren Central in the District 14 Tournament at 7 p.m. Thursday.
