I just got back from the game, I believe this was the final score. If not, one of our friendly mods can correct it for me : )

 

Relentless pressure by the Royals in the first half built up a 20 point lead and coasted from there.

 

Montgomery just could not handle the pressure and when they had open shots didn't hit them.

 

Congrats to the Royals on a nice win.

It was a 21-point win; can't remember if 71-50 is correct or not.

 

Royals jumped out 23-3 and never looked back; I don't think Darius had a point up to then. Off shooting night for Darius (although the three throwdowns were impressive); he was getting knocked around pretty good but big points weren't needed from Darius tonight. Very uninspired play by Mason County after that; starters were all rewarded with some bench time in the 3rd period as they looked somewhat flat after building the big lead. Went out with a 16-point lead, came back in and got the lead to 27 at 67-40 pretty quick; reserves back in after that point.

 

All 13 Royals that dressed got PT tonight. Nice to see Ethan King on the floor; first time in a long time. Also nice to see Hammer crack the scoring column tonight. Tyreese hit a couple of threes; good to see him get his stroke back. Middleton looked real comfortable to me tonight. When Darius started playing defense on Stephens, that was the end of the scoring for Stephens.

 

Good region win for the Royals. Once again Utterback was the best player on the floor for the Indians but he just doesn't have a lot of help right now.

Nice win Royals,Mason jumped out to a 23-3 lead and that was it from there.Coach sub liberally from there and it was actually kinda a boring game for the exception of the 3 miller dunks watch 18 news at 11 for the highlights 1 was nasty.

We all knew who was going to win.

Montgomery is similar to Brossart,just not enough athletes. The 10th has been a 2 team competition since last season(Mason and Clark). It will be those 2 Sunday(date?)at 3:00.

Sounds like a nice win. I worked tonight and only caught part of it on the radio. I need some descriptions on darius' dunks guys!! I hate when I miss something like that.

First dunk was a beautiful alley oop and then on the inbound pass, ball was stolen and passed right back to him for another one. Two beautiful dunks in just a matter of seconds.

 

He had another one in the second half I believe, but not as good as those first two.
