Colby Cruises Past Seward

Seward is not having the kind of season they wanted to have.  Coming off of last year’s Jayhawk West and Region 6 title, a young team has fought off injuries throughout the winter.  Despite that, they were competitive and had chances to win every conference game.  Until last night.  #16 Colby had no problem with the Saints beating them 85-68 Wednesday night in the Colby Community Building.

The Trojans built leads of 31-15 and 37-22 before leading SCCC 44-29 at halftime.  Colby led by as many at 21 at 58-37.  Colby made 8-19 three pointers.  Seward shot 45 percent and 1-10 from three point range.

Bee McCrary scored 16 points with eight rebounds.  Roy Clark had 14 points with five rebounds.

Seward loses for a fifth straight year at Colby and played their final game in the Colby Community Building Wednesday night.  Colby will move into a new facility next season.  Seward is 15-12 and 8-10 in the Jayhawk West.  Colby is 23-4 and 15-3 in the Jayhawk West.  Seward hosts Barton at 8 Saturday night for Sophomore Recognition Night.  Sharp McQueen PA is the game sponsor with tickets also available at Hutch’s.  The game airs on 107.5 and kscbnews.net.
