The Wahoo Warriors were defeated in Capitol Conference action by the Platteview Trojans 57-45 on Friday night in Wahoo.
The Warriors scored the first 7 points of the game on a three point play from Brendan Lacey, and buckets from Cmaeron Quick and Dylan Egr. Wahoo increased the lead to 13-4, and still led 13-9 after one quarter.
Platteview tied the game at 17 in the second quarter. Wahoo led 28-26, when Blake Lacey hit a trey at the buzzer to send Wahoo to the break with a 31-26 lead.
A trey from Billy Hancock and a Cameron Quick bucket gave Wahoo a 10 point third quarter lead at 38-28. Platteview scored 6 quick points to cut the lead to 38-34. The fourth quarter ended with the game tied at 42.
A Cameron Quick free throw and a Will Shanahan free throw gave Wahoo a 45-42 lead with 6:55 left in the game. That would be the Warriors final points of the game though. Wahoo went ice cold from the perimeter in the final 7 minutes, and had 6 shots in the paint blocked by Platteview’s 6’10 Brady Heiman. It was still a three point game at 48-45, with three minutes left, but the Warriors inability to get anything to fall offensively would cost the Warriors the chance at the win.
Platteview outrebounded Wahoo 44-30 and blocked 12 Warrior shots from the field.
Brendan Lacey scored 10 points and had 5 rebounds. Will Shanahan had 9 points and 10 boards. Cameron Quick added 9 points.
Wahoo drops to 10-1 and travels to Valley to take on D.C. West this afternoon. Platteview improves to 10-2.
