Centerville waltzed into their contest on Friday with eight straight wins... but they left with nine. They took their game with ease, bagging a 67-28 victory over the Tri Titans. The Bulldogs have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won seven matchups by 20 points or more this season.

Leading Centerville to victory were Ethan Vecera and Shea Hollendonner. Vecera almost dropped a double-double with 12 points and nine assists, while Hollendonner went 6-for-10 to rack up 17 points. The contest was Hollendonner's third in a row with at least 17 points. The team also got some help courtesy of Jace Hollendonner, who posted ten points.

They weren't the only ones working in the assist department: Centerville was working as a unit and finished the game with 22 assists. That's the most assists they've posted since back in December of 2024.

Centerville pushed their record up to 16-6 with the win, which was their seventh straight on the road. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 61.1 points over those games. As for Tri, they have been struggling recently as they've lost six of their last seven games. That's put a noticeable dent in their 12-8 record this season.

Centerville will square off against Pendleton Heights at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday. Pendleton Heights is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 52.8 points per game this season.
