Daniel to Zanelli for the bucket. McKie hit Reyes on the fastbreak with the pass for the lay-up. 59-43. Ditto the very next play, McKie to Reyes.
Perhaps the funnest play came at this point in the game. Reyes lofted the ball to Hamilton, Mr. Birthday boy, for the catch in the air and banked home shot. Ethan Thomas would make the last shot from inside the key. Weiser would savor the win 65-46.
Scoring: McKie 19, Zanelli 10, Reyes 9, Hemphill 7, Daniel and Bumgarner 6 each, Roberts 4, Hamilton and Thomas 2 each.
