UPDATE TO INCLUDE WASHINGTON GAME
Myles Ellis dominated early and Hunter Lassley dominated late to lead the Comanche Indians to a 59-39 win over visiting Amber-Pocasset on Tuesday.
Ellis knocked down three three-pointers in the first quarter for 13 of his points in the quarter as Comanche jumped out to a 16-4 first quarter lead. Comanche led 12-2 before Am-Po hit its first field goal of the game with 1:38 to go.
The Indians cooled off a little bit in the second quarter, scoring nine points, but still limited the Panthers to six points on their way to a 25-10 halftime lead.
After not scoring a field goal in the first half, Lassley caught fire in the third quarter, scoring eight of his team’s 18 points in the quarter as the Indians continued to pull away.
