District 2 AA Boys Final

Meyers and Elk Lake came in vying for the District 2 title. Meyers came in as the top seed and Elk Lake came in as the No 2 seed. Both teams came in as polar opposites, with Elk Lake being the high scoring team and Meyers being the team that has allowed the least in the District Playoffs. Elk Lake started the game with a basket by Seth Tewksbury but Meyers would go on a 17-0 run only ending on a basket by Seth Tewksbury to end the quarter at 17-4. JJ Heft of Elk Lake scored the first basket of the second quarter and would score 4 points in the quarter but Meyers would lead at halftime 28-14. Meyers would give up 8 points in the third but score 12 and would lead 40-22. The Mohawks would cruise in the fourth quarter and take the District title 50-29. Ryan Wasley had a game-high 14 points and Matt Dessoye added 9 for the Mohawks. For Elk Lake, Bailey Newhart had 7 points, and Seth Tewksbury and Rierdan Ryan added 5 points each.


Thoughts on the game: Great game by the Meyers defense on Bailey Newhart, he couldn't get his usual looks and kept him only to 7 points. Meyers height was the biggest advantage tonight, getting several offensive rebounds and getting second chances.
