Kamiakin 55, Southridge 35: Justin Pedley and Zach En'Wezoh had 17 points apiece and combined for 18 rebounds to help co-pilot host Kamiakin to a CBBN 3A win over Southridge.
"I thought we defended really well," Kamiakin coach Brian Meneely said. "We were coming off an emotional game Friday night, and there was a lot of emotion in this game as well. That's a good thing this early in the year."
The Braves held only a nine-point halftime lead before beating West Valley 52-39 on Friday in Yakima, and on Saturday, the Braves rolled up a 26-11 halftime lead to signal their eventual victory against the Suns.
"It was a great crowd," Meneely said of Saturday's crosstown rivalry matchup with the Suns. "Both schools brought a ton of kids to the gym, great atmosphere for a high school basketball game."
