Callisburg gets revenge

on Pilot Point

PILOT POINT — After a disappointing defeat by the hands of the Pilot Point Bearcats earlier in the season, the Callisburg Wildcats got revenge Tuesday, stealing on away from the Bearcas 47-44.

Callisburg (17-6, 6-3 district) trailed 11-3 after the first quarter and 21-17 at halftime. The Wildcats outscored Pilot Point 30-23 in the second half to take the win.

Leading the way for Callisburg was Ben Fisk who scored 16 points while Langston Jones added 12.

Also scoring for the Wildcats were Taylor Dishman with 5 points, Bobby Dorman had 4, Oscar Gutierrez and Kevin Bartley each chipped in 3 and Matt Adams and Alex Averill.



Muenster defeats Windthorst in OT

WINDTHORST — The Muenster Hornets needed overtime to snag a district win over Windthorst Tuesday, defeating the Trojans 45-44.

Muenster (16-7, 2-2 district) led 18-17 at halftime before Windthorst tied the game at 27-27 going into the fourth quarter.

Trailing by 3 points with 8.2 seconds left, the Hornets used a missed opportunity by Windthorst to force overtime.

The Trojans missed a free throw that would have made it a two-possession game, but Scott Porter made the best of the situation, nailing a game-tying 3-pointer at the buzzer to force overtime.

Porter wasn’t finished though, as he hit the game-winning 3-pointer with five seconds left in overtime.

“Scott Porter came up huge late in the game,” Muenster Coach Courtney Christenson said. “Tyler Anderle was also a very big part of the game, assuming the point guard role for Jason Luke who did not make the trip due to illness. This was a great win for the program in a very tough environment. The celebration was a great feeling.”

Eric Hellman led Muenster with 14 points while Porter finished with 13. Josiah Flaming added 8 points, Anderle scored 6, Garrett Walterscheid and Shane Presnall each chipped in 2.

MUENSTER — The Sacred Heart junior varsity took on Wichita Falls Notre Dame Tuesday, defeating them 48-16.
