Kansas City Central 77, Carthage 59

Just two days after shattering the tournament record for points scored in a single game, the Blue Eagles of Kansas City Central had an off night in second-round play. That off night was still more than enough to handle most of the competition that they may face, however, including the Carthage Tigers, as the Blue Eagles rolled to a 22-point win.

Senior Mikel Spearman led the offensive effort for Central with 22 points, followed closely by Terrell Shears with 21. Prince Bass joined Spearman and Shears in double figures as well with 12.

That win lifted Central into the tournament championship in the boys' bracket, where they will face the winner of tonight's game between the Panthers of Raymore-Peculiar and the Knights of Kansas City Southeast at 4:30 p.m., Saturday, inside Wynn Gymnasium. Carthage drops to the third place game to take on tonight's loser at 1:30 p.m., Saturday, at Wynn Gymnasium.
