Big win for Shelby. I see they held Sewell to 8 points. I wonder if him and Hicks was matched up against each other?

Sewell stayed in foul trouble the entire game, he only played about 12 minutes.

I know Shelby Co is the favorite in the 8th region but for them to beat Trinity surprises me some.

Thought Trinity would win this one. Sewell must have been parked for quite awhile.
