GAME STORY: Mesa Ridge basketball achieved purple perfection by KyleNewmanDP copreps
“We knew it would be a great game, and we loved it was all Springs guys here,” Mesa Ridge coach Joel Babbitt said. “ Barry is a buddy of mine. In the second half, we started getting our defense right and started limiting some of their shots. Because wow, they can really shoot it.”
The Grizzlies set the tone from the opening tip, and it took a few minutes for the Kadets to sink a field goal. The Grizzlies led 20-16 after one quarter, but Air Academy used an 11-2 run sparked by Featherstone to go into the half with a 38-36 advantage. The Kadets were especially potent from long range early on, sinking 7 of 12 first-half 3s, while Mesa Ridge shot 6 of 15 from distance to keep pace.
