Boys basketball: Evergreen 72, King’s Way Christian 70

Though his team started cold, Brock Schoene was on fire when it counted.

The senior scored nine of his 19 points in the fourth quarter, including two crucial 3-pointers, as Evergreen beat King’s Way Christian 72-70 at home.

Schoene also blocked a 3-point attempt in the final seconds with Evergreen leading 71-70. After Schoene made one free throw, King’s Way had a 50-foot desperation shot rim out.

Evergreen (3-3) trailed 28-13 after the first quarter. But the Plainsmen clawed back with a balanced attack that saw four players score in double figures. Dwight Jones had 17 points, X’Zayvier Washington added 13 and Jeremy Harju had 11.

“We want to be a balanced team,” Evergreen coach Brett Henry said. “Even though we have nine seniors, we’re still young. We’re learning how to win.”

Brady Metz had 23 points and Khalfani Cason added 20 for King’s Way (1-5).
