The Bronco basketball team is currently 11-5 overall for the season and has maintained their number one ranking in the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches poll. Their latest win came at Groom where they defeated the Tigers, 78-45.
It was never a contest at all as the Broncos dominated throughout. They were able to execute their offense well, and Johnny Gaines and Brayden Phillips finished in double figures.
Defensively, the Broncos forced many turnovers and were able to convert Groom’s mistakes into points for Clarendon.
“We do a good job of putting pressure on their guards and forcing turnovers,” coach Brandt Lockhart said. “Everyone did a good job of passing the basketball.”
