MOSES LAKE - Michael Northrup had 21 points and Eric Curtiss added 16 to lead the Columbia Basin Secondary School (CBSS) over Wilson Creek 57-27.
The win on the Phoenix home court Tuesday gives CBSS a 1-0 record in league play.
"We jumped out to a 26 to 2 lead in the first quarter
before coasting to 30 point victory," coach Rolland Hansen said. "Wilson Creek has a young and inexperienced team but they played hard and fought until the end."
The Devils came out strong in the second quarter of action, outscoring CBSS 11-8 to close the gap to 34-19 at the half.
But a quick 15-4 Phoenix spurt out of the gate in the third quarter blew the game wide open for the home team as Wilson Creek trailed 49-23.
The large disparity in the score heading into the fourth quarter saw liberal substitutions by Hansen to get some of the reserves game time experience.
"My boys played hard and stayed focused on running their offense and improving on defense," Hansen said. "That allowed everyone got plenty of playing time."
The Phoenix host White Swan Saturday at 7:30 p.m.

“There are six conference rooms at city hall, and I never get them straight, so I thought a great way to do it, was to name one of them after Ron Edinger because of all his service to the city and our community, which is vast,” Gookin said. “So, I talked to Nancy and asked if it would be okay with me dedicating a conference room after Ron, and she's like, 'oh, absolutely.’”
