Goshen's success was spearheaded by the efforts of Levi Sawatzky, who went 5-for-11 en route to 16 points and five steals, and Karter Marcum, who almost dropped a double-double with 17 points and nine rebounds. Sawatzky's big performance that evening made it ten games in a row in which he has scored at least 16 points. The team also got some help courtesy of Braxton Cline, who posted seven points in addition to five assists and five steals.
Goshen smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 16 offensive boards. That's the most offensive rebounds they've posted since back in February of 2024.
Meanwhile, Warsaw extended their postseason success on Tuesday against Concord. They strolled past the Minutemen with points to spare, taking the game 44-30. Given the Tigers' advantage in MaxPreps' Indiana basketball rankings (they are ranked 26th, while the Minutemen are ranked 129th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Warsaw is on a roll lately: they've won 17 of their last 19 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 23-5 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 64.2 points over those games. Goshen's win bumped their record up to 14-9.
Goshen might still be hurting after the 62-42 loss they got from Warsaw when the teams last played back in January. Can Goshen avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
