The Broncos competed in the Canadian Basketball Tournament over the holidays and finished with one win and two losses.
The Broncos’ win came against Wheeler in the second round of the tourney winning 58-47. JoJo Cartwright led the Broncos with 17 points in the win.
Clarendon trailed by nine points after the first quarter of play, but they made their way back before the break posting a three-point lead over the Mustangs. The Broncos extended their lead and sealed their win in the fourth quarter when they took over offensively and opened up the scoring. Cedrick McCampbell and Ashton Smith joined Cartwright with double figures scoring ten points each.
Also scoring: Chance McAnear 7, Charles Mason 5, Taylon Knorpp 4, Chance Lockhart 3, and Bryce Hatley 2.
The Broncos opened the tournament against a good Stratford team and were defeated 58-80. The Elks took control of the game on both ends of the court, which left the Broncos struggling to get anything going. Cartwright, once again, led the Broncos on the board with 19 and Mason helped with 14. Also scoring: Hatley 6, Smith 5, McCampbell 4, Knorpp 4, Jr. Ceniceros 3, McAnear 3, and Lockhart 3.
In round three, the Broncos were stopped by Dalhart 40-80. They seemed to struggle throughout and could never find a rhythm against their opponent. Mason pumped in 10 points to lead the Broncos on the score board. Also scoring: McCampbell 8, Hatley 6, Chesson Sims 4, Ceniceros 4, and McAnear 1.
The Broncos will play Ascension Academy at home Thursday, January 2, at 7:30 p.m. and travel to Childress January 3.
