St. Xavier 61, Ballard 57: Even with outscoring the Tigers (14-7) by seven in the second half, that wasn’t enough for the host Bruins (15-7) to come out on top. St. Xavier’s Connor Mckim put up an impressive 19 points, also adding six assists. Leading Ballard was Brian Alvey with 15 points.

Nice bounce back win for St. X after losing to Eastern earlier in the week. Seventh Region really up for grabs this year.

The 7th Region ain't no joke.
