Last night, February 24th, the Pirates traveled to Falls City to take on George West HS for the 2020 Bi-District playoff game. The Pirates started off with bang pressuring the ball and giving George West all they could handle which led to a 18-7 first quarter lead. The Pirates went into half leading 35-24. The second half was a different story as George West fought back and hit some big shots to keep the second half close. The Pirates fought adversity and foul trouble in the 4th to pull out the win 73-70. John Martinez led all scorers with 22 points and 8 rebounds. Freshman Jordan Balderas had a big 4th quarter with 8 points and 8 rebounds to keep us in the game. I'm so proud of this group, they continue to be resilient and find ways as a team to play together and get big wins this season. The Pirates will head to the second round of the playoffs this Friday with playoff info going out tomorrow once finalized.
