Boys basketball: Battle Ground 61, Heritage 43

Kaden Perry had 31 points and Nate Millspaugh provided the early spark, finishing with 16 points for the Tigers.

“We were really struggling early and Nate hit a lot of big shots for us,” Battle Ground coach Manny Melo said. “He’s the biggest reason (Kaden Perry) had 31. Heritage had to play hard on him (outside), and it led to a lot of easy buckets for Kaden.”

Brendan Beall added 10 points for the Tigers, who will play Camas on Wednesday.

Conner Childs had 16 to lead Heritage, which will conclude its season Wednesday with a non-league game against Washougal.
