Isaiah Foster was the high scorer of the night with 15 points, followed by Jay Broome with 14. Foster is also averaging over 5 rebounds per a game.

Tonight was a complete team effort. It feels like we’ve had more games than practices at this point as a full squad, but we’re learning and improving with each game. I gave the team 3 keys to winning going into the game tonight: 1. Shot Selection, 2. Limit Turnovers, 3. Rebound, rebound, rebound. These are the three things that got us beat at Calhoun on Saturday. Our boys responded exactly how we needed them to coming off of a loss, and they took care of each of the three keys to winning that we discussed before the game. They played more as a team tonight than they have all season. Our chemistry is improving tremendously. We had ten guys score with three of those in double-figures. Nobody scored more than 15. We’re excited to go into Christmas being undefeated in the region. We’re a little banged up right now, and I hope we’ll be healed up before we resume region play in January,” said Indian Head Coach Jared Groce.

The varsity boys will be playing in the Cherokee Invitational on 12/16, 12/19 and 12/20 (bracket attached).  Chattooga is the defending champs for the Christmas tournament. Games will be played in Gaylesville High School’s new gymnasium. PLEASE NOTE: Game times on the bracket are central time
